Meanwhile Mr. De la Salle continued his way on a river which goes from east to west and passes to Onoutagu^ (Onon- daga), then to six or seven leagues below Lake Erie, and having reached the 280th or 83d degree of longitude and as far as the 41st degree of lati- tude, found a cataract which falls westward in a lov marshy country, all covered with old stumps some of which are still standing. He was forced to land, and following a ridge which might lead him far, he found some Indians who told him... that very far from there, this same river which lost itself in this low and vast country, united again in a single bed. He accordingly continued his way, but as the hardship was great, 23 or 24 men whom he had 14 conducted up to that point, all left him in one night, regained the river and escaped, some to New Netherland, the others to New England. He then beheld himself alone four hundred leagues from his home, to which nevertheless he succeeded in return- ing ascending the river, and living by hunting, on herbs and what the Indians gave him whom he met on the way.
