INDEX.
N. B.—This index covers all the matter of the two preceding volumes, both of main text and notes thereto. It is mainly an index of names, proper and common, without analysis of what comes under them. All proper names are intended to be indexed in every place where they occur, excepting the author's name. " N. W. Co." is indexed wherever it happens to appear, though the whole work relates to the North West Company. Of common names the list is quite full, though it is exclu- sive, as a rule, of mere mention or allusion. Proper are distinguished from common names by capitals, the same as they would be if occur- ring in ordinary sentences. The arrangement of the entries is intended to be strictly alphabetical, without regard to the logical order in which Albert, phrases or phrase-names would follow one another ; thus, Jo- seph, comes after Alberta, and before Alberton, Ont. Contractions and thus, pt. for abbreviations are alphabetized as if they were spelled out ; "point" precedes p. for "portage." Place-names which are phrases thus, Superior under are entered as usually spoken or written ; Lake r. Lake, but Moose 1. under Moose; Fort Dauphin, but Dauphin though many such are also entered both ways, with cross-references. appear as Alternative and variant names of the same thing of course ; Lac a la Pluie, Lac la Pluie, Rainy 1., for the one body of water. Besides subserving the usual purpose, this index has been utilized for the purpose of introducing a comparatively large amount of new mat- ter, representing many memoranda which I had made for use in my notes, but which the author's text did not happen to bring up in any connection. Most of these additional entries are biographical items of with a date, voyageurs and others of the N. W. Co. ; they commonly end this will occasion looking at first sight like a reference to a page ; but no uncertainty, as the pagination of the text does not reach four figures. The sansfagojt style of writing French personal names, which may or may not begin with a preposition or with the definite article, makes it must be en- impossible to observe any rule in such cases ; these names tered as they are found—for example, such as De La Fayette, La Fayette, or Fayette, are all liable to appear. Usual abbreviations or contractions for names of States and Terri- tories of the United States, of Provinces or Districts of the Dominion of Canada, of civic, military, and ecclesiastical titles, etc. Also, the
