*There are several villages of Chapawas settled along the bank of Lake Superior, but 

 as I have no knowledge of that country, cannot ascertain their numbers. 



t These are a nation of Indians settled south-west of Lake Superior, called by the French 

 La Sue ; who, by the best account that I could ever get from the French and Indians, 

 are computed ten thousand fighting men. They spread over a large tract of country, and 

 have forty odd villages; in which country are several other tribes of Indians, who are 

 tributaries to the Lasues, none of whom, except a very few, have ever known the use 

 of fire-arms ; as yet but two villages. I suppose the French don't choose to risk a trade 

 among such a powerful body of people, at so vast a distance.
