1721 “M. de la Harpe is despatched with an armed force to explore the Bay of St. Bernard. On its shore he planted the arms of France & took formal possession of the country. He attempts to form an establishment on the bay, but fails of success through the hostility of the Indians.” Leary’s Chr: 89.
