Mr. John Gilmary Shea, in his "Discovery and Exploration of the Mississippi Valley, " including the "Life of Marquette, " page 520, says: "He seems to have taken the way by the St. Joseph's river and reached the eastern shore of Lake Michigan, along which he had not yet sailed. " Mr. Thomas Weadock, in his "Life of Marquette, " says, after speaking of the founding by Marquette of the Mission of the Im- maculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin at Kaskaskia: "The object he had cherished for year...s was attained he had founded the Illinois mission. His work was done; he was ready to die. But he wished to die among his brethren, with the rites of holy church; so he set out on his return voyage going by St. Joseph's river and the eastern shore of Lake Michigan. Gradually his strength failed, and at last he had to be lifted out of the canoe when they stopped for the night. He calmly contemplated the approaching change with that pious serenity which became a Christian missionary. It is a characteristic of great minds, whe- ther pagan, philosopher or Christian man, that they can so look upon death without fear.
