Ocah was a little boy who was born
in the southern part of Greenland

seal and have OCahs mottCr make "A
suit out of it. This suit of seal skin
kept Ocah very warm indeed but n"
had 10 be very careful of it. for he
would not get another like it until the
next year.
one day when Ocah was ten years o,
age, his father said that he would taka
him out To hunt the big walrus. Ocah
got out his little spear which his faith
or had made from the bones of the
whale. When they were ready. his
father, Changooga, got a sleigh which
ten dogs pulled and Ocah sat down
with his father behind him. Then
away they went. You can imagine
how Ocah felt when he got on the
sleigh
After they had ridden several miles
out Of sight from where they lived.
Chango"ga got off of tho sleigh and
saw a walrus. Quickly he jumped on

he was out there and pretty near the
walrus, Ocah who had been on the
sleigh saw another walrus and he got
on piece of ice and went after II.
When he was out there he lifted his
spear hut only struck the welrus on
the back which made II very angry. II

the company But they made the
trails, and opened up the country for
those who should come after. Their
story would be one of deep interest
They lived like the Indian, sometimes
sinking lower than the savage.

history of the early Jesuit missionary

And the fifth group whose history
should be written is the sailors on the
Lakes without whom the opening up
of old Keweenaw would have been .
far more difficult task.
The sailor is the successor of the old
VOyageur who handed on a full knowl-
edge of the shore line of the Lite
Brother of the Sea. The canoe and
Mackinaw was large enough and fast
enough for the patient missionary and
determined voyaeeur but the impul-
sive miner and executive business was
in hurry, and wanbed speed and
certainty. Large hOatS tYerc needed
Ia carry heavy machinery aud ahund-
ant supplies. They came, first thc.s;t J.
ing vessels. then the steamers i'm lS45.
They were uncertain little Graf g,
hardly fitted TO face the winds and
waves of Lake Superior, but they were
ably handled by experienced men who
combined courage with discretion No

complete without the story of the sail
or who brought supplies To the miner,

II time permitted, one might give
many Illustrations of what the opening
of this country involved. 1t was the
work of @heroes, men and women If
courage and patriotic faith whether

sionary, or the pioneer settler. or the
