Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Mackinaw: Or, the Fortress of the Lakes and Its Surroundings Mackinaw and its surroundings - Indian legends - Hiawatha - Ottawas and Ojibwas - Paw-pau-ke-wis - San-ge-man - Kau-be-man - An Indian custom - Dedication to the spirits - Au-se-gum-ugs - Exploits of San-ge-man - Point St. Ignatius - Magic lance - Council of Peace - Conquests of San-ge-man. Mackinaw, with its surroundings, has an interesting and romantic history, going back to the earliest times. The whole region of the Northwest, with its vast wildernesses and mighty lakes, has been traditionally invested with a mystery. The very name of Mackinaw, in the Indian tongue, signifies the dwelling-place of the Great Genii, and many are the legends written and unwritten connected with its history. If the testimony of an old Indian chief at Thunder Bay can be credited, it was at old Mackinaw that Mud-je-ke-wis, the father of Hiawatha, lived and died.
