OHIO RIVER
Facts Concerning Its Discovery by La
Sale.

The Ohio river was discovered by
Robert Cavalier La Sale, one of the
most noted of the French explorers in
North America. Although several at
tempts had been made previous to the
discovery, to locate this river they had
all been unsuccessful. In the year
1867 Father Marquette, jesuit priest,
and Louis Joliet, a famous explorer,
set out to find this river and to in.
spect its surroundings. By sailing
along the shores of Lake Michigan and
by way of the FOX and Wisconsin riv-
ers, they reached the Mississippi riv-
er and continued down that stream as
far as 80 deg. Lat. North. Here they
turned back and returned to Canada
| by way Of. the Illinois.
1t was in 1868 that Dallier, French
missionary in Canada, heard of the
Ohio river from some Indians who had
been to the Ohio Valley on a war ,ex-
pedition. The Indians reported it as
being as large as the st. Lawrence, and
told wonderful stories of its beautiful
scenery.
La Salle was speedily informed OF
the existence of this stream and al
once set about making the necessary
preparations for leading an expedition
to the Ohio Valley. With Indians a!
guides he set out, by way of Onandago
New York, in search Of the stream o
which he had beard so much.
In October, 1863, he reached the Al
legheny river and descended it as ia
as to its junction with the Mononga
hela; thus being the first white mai
to see the Ohio river. He continues
down the Ohio as far as the falls a
what is now Louisville, KY, and her
was deserted by his guides In tn
spring he reached Canada alone, an
at once sent word to France in regar
to his discovery; and from that da
the Ohio Valley was claimed b
