and Little Goodwoman creek on the north: also the creek of
the Big Rock. We met two Frenchmen in two canoes laden
with peltry; passed a high cliff of rocks on the south side,
and encamped on the north side. The land about this place
is good and well timbered.
On the 6th we passed Saine creek on the south side; and
on the 7th the river of the Big Devil on the north; and Big
Goodwoman’s creek on the same side, where we encamped.
