It was so named from the fact, that many years before, the Hudson Bay Company had a trading post there for traffic with the Indians. It had been abandoned for many years, but in its vicinity were some capital hunt- ing grounds. This spot to which Sandy and I had gone for ducks, was about twenty miles from our home. We had paddled that distance in our canoe, and were quite successful in re- plenishing our larder. While carefully pad- dling along, we saw a fine large mallard duck swimming quite a... distance ahead. When we thought we were within range, Sandy, who was in the bow of the canoe, carefully raised his gun and fired. Whether it was owing to the move- ment of the canoe or not I cannot say ; but he missed the duck. Quick as a flash he threw down his gun, and, catching up his bow and arrow, fired at the duck which of course had instantly risen and was flying away directly in front of us. Imagine my surprise and de- lo8 On the Indian TraU light, to see the arrow wing its way so unerr- ingly, that it pierced the duck, and brought it suddenly down into the river.
