  • Reviews & Short Features: Vol. 12/ 4 (1931)
    REVIEWS OF BOOKS La Louisiane: histoire de son nom et de ses frontikres successives (1681-1819) (La societe des Americanistes de Paris, Publications). By BARON MARC DE VILLIERS. (Paris, Adrien-Maisonneuve, 1929. 74 p. Maps.) Since Minnesota was so long a part of Louisiana, a study of what the latter term has connoted at various times has a distinct value for Minnesota history. Accordingly the appearance of the Baron de Villiers' La Louisiane is worth noting. It is a careful examination of the term and its application by a person well acquainted with the sources. He concludes that Abbe Bernou, one of La Salle's closest friends and Cardinal D'Estrees' secretary, was responsible for the first printed use of the term. The writer goes into Bernou's relations with La Salle and with Hennepin in an attempt to prove that Bernou used Hennepin's knowledge of America as a means of furthering his own plans for La Salle. This fact, to the author's mind, explains Hennepin's so-called plagiarisms in the Description de la Louisiane (Paris, 1683); lor Bernou and his accomplices handed Hennepin La Salle's map and other documents, with which he was to produce for them a narrative of La Salle's exploration. Hennepin took them, so it is alleged, and then wrote the story as he judged best. Whereupon Bernou substituted two hundred pages of his own Relation des descouvertes et des voyages du sieur de la Salle, based on La Salle's own papers, and allowed the Recollet friar to write as he would only the last part of the volume.

  • On Duty at Fort Ridgely, Minnesota: 1853-1867
    Copyright © 1977 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. On Duty at Fort Ridgcly, Minnesota: 1853-1867 PAUL L. HEDREN Fort Ridgely, Minnesota, rests securely in the annals of western American history because of the very significant role it played in the tragic 1862 Sioux Uprising. During the autumn of that year it provided protection for hundreds of homeless and stricken civilians. The post was actually besieged by hostile Indians on several occasions-an act not as common to history as it is to television and movies! And the fort served as a major focal point for the military operations that finaily quelied the Central-Minnesota hostilities. Contrary to most studies on the subject, however, a look at Fort Ridgely should be more than just an examination of the events of 1862.^ An encompassing study of this interesting post should look at the art of soldiering in the Upper Midwest, with all its associated ills and blessings. A study should look at the relationships between the military and civilians at this fort. An investigation of Fort Ridgely should answer numerous ques- tions. Just who served there? Who led those men? How did they dress? What did they accomplish? Ridgely was a vibrant fort, and it does have an interesting history-beyond the year 1862. The need for a military post on the Upper Minnesota River was quickly recognized and urged following the signing in 1851 of treaties with Minnesota bands of Sioux Indians. It was argued that troops should be better positioned to operate offensively 1. The standard approach to Fort Ridgely history has been to briefly examine the construction and use of the post, preparatory to lengthy discussions of the Sioux attacks in 1862, Such studies as Kenneth Carley's Vie Sioux Uprising of 1862 (St.
