These risings attracted the attention of the earliest voyageurs in these regions. Char- levoix, who traversed the lakes nearly a century ago, says in reference to Lake Ontario : ' I observed that in this lake there is a sort of reflux and flux, almost instantaneous ; the rocks near the banks being covered with water and un- covered again several times in the space of a quarter of an hour, even if the surface of the lake was very calm, with scarce a breath of air. After reflecting for some time ...on this appearance, I imagined it was owing to springs at the bottom of the lake, and to the shock of their currents with those of the rivers which fall into them from all sides, and thus produce those intermitting motions. ' The same move- ments were noticed by Mackenzie, in 1787 ; by an expedi- tion under Colonel Bradstreet, in 1764 ; on Lake Erie, in 1823 ; and at various later periods. In the summer of 1834, an extraordinary retrocession of the waters of Lake Superior took place at the outlet of Sault Sainte Marie.
