Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collections of the Minnesota Historical Society, Vol. 1 It was not, however, a very encouraging prospect for an institution of that kind. The population of St. Paul was only 400 or 500, and there were but three or four towns in the Territory, which was then still occupied by the Indians, and had altogether not over white imbabi tants. These were mostly poor settlers, and in the struggle for subsist ence in a new country, still a wilderness, had scarcely leisure or means to cultivate aesthetics or write or study history. Consequently the development of the Society was very slow during the first few years. In 1858 there were only 441 volumes in the Library, and those of minor value.

Download or read book Collections of the Minnesota Historical Society Vol 10 Classic Reprint written by Minnesota Historical Society and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collections of the Minnesota Historical Society, Vol. 10 The editor states in his introduction to Radisson's narratives All his manuscripts have been handed down in perfect preser vation. They are written out in a clear and excellent handwrit ing, showing the writer to have been a person of good education. The president of the Prince Society, in his preface of the same volume, says: The narratives contained in it are the rec ord of events and transactions in which the author was a principal actor. They were apparently written without any intention of publication, and are plainly authentic and trustworthy The author was a native of France, and had an imperfect knowl edge oi the English language. The journals, with the exception of the last in the volume, are, however, written in that language, and, as might be anticipated, in orthography, in the use of words, and in the structure of sentences, conform to no known standard of English composition. But the meaning is in all cases clearly conveyed, and, in justice both to the author and reader, they have been printed verbatim et literati/m, as in the original manuscripts. By extracts given further on, describing the two expedi tions to Minnesota, the style of Radisson's writing will be well shown. Many parts of the narration where we should wish quite complete statement are given very briefly or omitted entirely. Other parts, on the contrary, have a fullness of garrulous detail which brings to View very vividly the many adventures, hard ships and dangers encountered among the savages, with frequent descriptions of their manner of life in the Wigwam, in their rude agriculture, in the hunt, on the war path, and in councils of public deliberation. The details are everywhere consistent with the now well known characteristics of these Indian tribes, and they thus bear decisive testimony that the narrator had actual experience by living long among them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collections of the Minnesota Historical Society, 1915, Vol. 15 In the autumn of 1860 large flocks of blackbirds, such as I think were never since seen in this country, attacked the corn crops and destroyed much corn. This was general over all southwestern Minnesota. It is no exaggeration whatever, when I say that dense flocks would consume an entire day and even longer in flying over a given point. The state offered forty cents per hundred for their heads, many were poisoned, but apparently no benefit was accomplished. The same year sandhill cranes were so numerous, voracious, and bold, that they could scarcely be driven from the fields.
