Acadia at the End of the Seventeenth Century Francis Parkman Amid domestic strife, the war of France with Eng- land and the Iroquois went on. Each division of the war was distinct from the rest, and each had a character of its own. As the contest for the West was wholly with New York and her Iroquois allies, so the contest for Acadia was wholly with the "Bostonnais, " or people of New England. Acadia, as the French at this time understood the name, included Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the g...reater part of Maine. The river Kennebec, which they looked on as the true dividing line between their posses- sions and New England, they regarded with the most watchful jealousy. Its headwaters approached those of the Canadian river Chaudiere, the mouth of which is near Quebec; and by ascending the former stream and 9 crossing to the headwaters of the latter through an intricacy of forests, hills, ponds and marshes, it was possible for a small band of hardy men to reach the Canadian capital — as was done long after by the fol- lowers of Benedict Arnold.
