Ki-o-he'-ro, St Stephen's mission at the foot of the lake in 1670, 

 is the same as Thiohero, defined below. 



Ko-lah-ne-kah is the name of Johnstown but Alfred B. Street in 

 his poem of Frontenac applies it to the village of Aurora which 

 itself occupies the site of the chief village of the nation, which was

 earthwork on it.

 lake, instead of making a long detour to the north.

 nition is essentially correct.
