The three study areas were located in Maxville (Part Lot 8, Concession 17, in the geographic Township of Kenyon), in Martintown (Part Lot 27, Concession 1 North Side Raisin River and Part Lot 26, Concession 1 South Side Raisin River, in the geographic Township of Charlottenburg) and along an unmaintained section of Cashion Road (between Part Lot 26, Second or Third Range South Side Raisin River, Part Lots 1 and 2, Concession 3 Indian Lands and Part Lot 2, Concession 4 Indian Lands, in the geographic Township of Charlottenburg) (see Figures 1 to 4). All selected areas determined to have archaeological potential in the Stage 1 study were shovel tested at five metre intervals to determine if archaeological resources were present. The Stage 2 assessment determined that there were no archaeological resources in the Maxville and Cashion Road study areas or in the Martintown study area north of the Raisin River. Historic archaeological resources, however, were found to the south of the Raisin River along both Crossing Alternative A and Crossing Alternative B, in the form of an ash deposit containing artifacts dating from the 1830s to the 1850s. The ash layer may have been deposited as part of a public works program to construct a levy along the river or to build up the road allowance. This deposit and the associated artifacts may have cultural value or interest, thus further archaeological assessment is required if either Crossing Alternate A or Crossing Alternative B is selected as the preferred pipeline route. iii Stage 2 Archaeological Assessment North Glengarry Regional Water Supply EA Past Recovery Archaeological Services This report forms the basis for the following recommendations: 1) No further archaeological assessment is required in either the Maxville or Cashion Road study areas as currently defined (see Figures 2 and 4). 2) No further archaeological assessment is required along Crossing Alternative A or Crossing Alternative B to the north of the Raisin River in the Martintown study area (see Figure 77). 3) Should either Crossing Alternative A or Crossing Alternative B in the Martintown study area be selected as the preferred route for the pipeline a Stage 3 archaeological assessment is required to the south of the Raisin River where archaeological resources were found, to determine whether these resources have cultural heritage value or interest (see Figure 77). This would involve the excavation of one metre square units on a five metre grid across the area of positive test pits. And to reiterate from the findings of the Stage 1 report (Cleland 2013): 4) No further archaeological assessment is required for the Potential Pump Station Site West, Potential Pump Station Site East and Crossing Alternative C in Martintown and Tollgate Road /Service Road Transmission Main Route Option study areas, as defined in the Stage 1 report (Cleland 2013).

    Stadacona Circle / Park The question could be asked: Do we know why Fred B. and Ella Grinnell gave Stadacona Circle (on 11 th Avenue East between Ivory and Arthur) to the city of Spokane? Many people remember the park, but very few remember the name. “Some of Spokane’s first ‘suburban’ neighborhoods were those planned and developed in East Central Spokane, beginning as early as 1900….East Central Spokane is a term applied to a large residential and commercial area which is roughly bounded by Sprague Avenue to the north, Fourteenth Avenue to the south, Division Street to the west, and Havana Street to the east (the city limit). Numerous multiple-block subdivisions were platted within the large East Central area and were called ‘additions,’ such as Stadacona Park Addition indicated how public greenspace was used and it is now a part of Grant Park.” 1 In 1901 Stadacona Circle was given to the city of Spokane by Citizens National Bank and Fred B. and Ella Grinnell. Later it was known as Stadacona Park. In 1901 there were no homes yet built in this area. “In the ‘Report of the Board of Park Commissioners, 1891-1913,’ it was noted that Stadacona Circle was a nice little spot nicely planted with trees and shrubbery, making a small breathing spot for the neighborhood.…If the Park Commission in accepting this little park agreed to build and maintain the surrounding street, about 25 or 30 feet wide, it made, in our opinion, a bad bargain for the city. If there was no such agreement, what should be done would be best determined by conditions as to which we are not posted.

    Water. Interaction in the Raisin River Watershed, Near Cornwall, Ontario

    -.. Groundwater Surface-Water. Interaction in the Raisin River Watershed, near Cornwall, Ontario by Sandra Porter Thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies and Research for the Degree of Master's of Science in Earth Sciences Ottawa-Carleton Geoscience Centre and University of Ottawa Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Sandra Porter O (1996) Abstract The interaction of groundwater with surface water is an integral part of the hydrologic cycle. Recognition of this relationship is pertinent when assessing the components of an ecosystem, or while examining factors such as water quality or quantity in a watershed. A field study was conducted in 1994 and 1995 to understand the interaction of groundwater and surface water in the Raisin River watershed, near Cornwall, Ontario. A number of variables were examined to describe the regional groundwater system and to determine the magnitude of the groundwater contribution to the river. The Raisin River lies within an agricultural region which relies heavily on groundwater use. The regional groundwater supply is predominantly from a limestone aquifer underlying various surficial deposits (primarily glacial till). Groundwater movement appears to be in a southeasterly direction, towards the St. ~awrenceRiver. Seepage meters, mini-piezometers, and a falling head permeameter were used to i) measure the flux of groundwater into (positive seepage) or out (negative seepage) of the Raisin River, and ii) measure the hydraulic conductivity of the Raisin River sediments. Measurements were made at thirteen sites within the watershed. To identify the source of groundwater and study processes of streamflow generation during storm runoff, surface water, groundwater, and rainwater samples were collected for environmental isotopes (oxygen-18 and deuterium).

The group had come from Stada- cona, a settlement up the Saint Lawrence River where Quebec City now stands. Cartier did not remain long in the area,but when he left for France, he took two Stadaconancaptives with him. His ad- ventures in the New World are documented in an account of this first voyage. He retumed the following summer, along with his cap- tives, who now spoke some French. This time he remainedlonger, spendingmost of the winter near Stadacona,with a briefexcursion to the settlement of Hochelaga,onpresent Montreal Island"The ac- count of this secondvoyage is also rich with descriptionsof the area and its inhabitants. In 1536, Cartier again set sail for France, this time with ten captives,most from around the areaof Stadacona,al- though one girl came from a town further upriver, Achelacy- Car' tier undertook a third voyagein 1541, but little mention is made of the Laurentian inhabitants in the account ofthis voyage,norin the journal of Roberval,who attempted to found a colony there several years later. In fact,little more was everto be known of thesepeople at all. When Champlain arrived in the region in 1603, they had com- pletely vanished, Who were thesepeople, and what becameof them?r Some traces, lurk in archaeologicalsites uncovered in the vicinity of Hochelaga.

No. V32-56/2005 ISBN 0-662-68750-7 Printed in Canada Native Soldiers – Foreign Battlefields Generations of Canadians have served our country and the world during times of war, military conflict and peace. Through their courage and sacrifice, these men and women have helped to ensure that we live in freedom and peace, while also fostering freedom and peace around the world. The Canada Remembers Program promotes a greater understanding of these Canadians’ efforts and honours the sacrifices and achievements of those who have served and those who supported our country on the home front. The program engages Canadians through the following elements: national and international ceremonies and events including Veterans’ Week activities, youth learning opportunities, educational and public information materials (including online learning), the maintenance of international and national Government of Canada memorials and cemeteries (including 13 First World War battlefield memorials in France and Belgium), and the provision of funeral and burial services. Canada’s involvement in the First and Second World Wars, the Korean War, and Canada’s efforts during military operations and peace efforts has always been fuelled by a commitment to protect the rights of others and to foster peace and freedom.

    Broken Chains of Custody: Possessing, Dispossessing, and Repossessing Lost Wampum Belts

    Broken Chains of Custody: Possessing, Dispossessing, and Repossessing Lost Wampum Belts MARGARET M. BRUCHAC Assistant Professor of Anthropology Coordinator, Native American and Indigenous Studies University of Pennsylvania Introduction In the spring of 2009, two historical shell bead wampum belts1—iden- tified as “early” and “rare” and valued at between $15,000 and $30,000 each—were advertised for sale at a Sotheby’s auction of Amer- ican Indian art objects2 belonging to the estate of Herbert G. Welling- ton.3 One belt, identified as having been collected by Frank G. Speck from the Mohawk community in Oka (Kanesatake, Quebec) before 1929, was tagged with an old accession number from the Heye Foun- dation/Museum of the American Indian (MAI; MAI #16/3827). The second belt, collected by John Jay White from an unknown locale before 1926, was identified as Abenaki; it, too, was tagged with an old MAI number (MAI #11/123; Figure 1). The Sotheby’s notice caught the attention of the Haudenosaunee Standing Committee on Burial Rules and Regulations (HSC), a consor- tium of Six Nations Iroquoian chiefs, tribal historians, and community leaders who serve as advocates and watchdogs for tribal territory and 1 The generic term wampum, borrowed from the Algonquian word wampumpeag for “white shells” (Trumbull 1903, 340–41), refers to cylindrical marine shell beads used by the Indigenous peoples of northeastern North America. Algonquian is the broad linguistic clas- sification for the Algonkian cultural group that includes the Indigenous nations in New England and in parts of Quebec, Ontario, and the Great Lakes. The beads were carved from the shells of univalve and bivalve mollusks harvested from the shores of Long Island Sound and other northeastern North American locales where riverine fresh waters mingled with marine salt waters.
