Excerpt from Travels and Explorations of the Jesuit Missionaries in New France, 1610-1791, Vol. 68: The Original French, Latin, and Italian Texts, With English Translations and Notes; Illustrated by Portraits, Maps, and Facsimiles; Lower Canada, Iroquois: 1667-1687 Bigot's relation is written at intervals in his mani fold labors, and sometimes while on his journeys. At one time, a month elapses before he can find time for writing - a time spent in the instruction of a crowd of new savages, who have just come from Acadia. After instructing them a short time at Sillery, he sends them to St. Francois de Sales. Still others are expected every day, who are to arrive from Acadia; and they themselves say that soon all the rest who are in Acadia will come to pray. The burden of supporting all these desti tute savages falls heavily on Bigot; but he bears it gladly, when he sees their fervor and docility. Most of those who have hitherto dwelt at Sillery will remove to St. Francois - only a hundred per sons, those who are most aged, remaining at their former home. The governor of Canada, La Barre, is aiding the Abenaki immigration, hoping that these savages will be allies of the French against the Iroquois, with whom war is imminent. Bigot expresses his surprise that so little disorder or misconduct exists among the Abenaki immigrants, who are coming in so great numbers. An entry in this current account of affairs, dated apparently early in August, states that many of these savages have gone to fight against the Iroquois, as part of La Barre's futile expedition against the Senecas - an enterprise in which the Abenakis acquit themselves well.
