Excerpt from History of Langlade County, Wisconsin: From U. S. Government Survey to Present Time, With Biographical Sketches Time passes swiftly. There is approaching that hour when the last pioneer will pass to his reward, and with this thought as his inspiring motive, the writer began the task of setting down, while yet there are a few from whose lips the story can be told, the deeds, trials, tribulations and monumental efforts of that vanguard of mor tal souls who first trod the soil of Langlade County.

The publication of these final two volumes of the Mississippi Provincial Archives brings to a close the important scholarly project initiated by Dunbar Rowland and A. G. Sanders in the 1920s, suspended at the time of the Great Depression, and then revived in 1979 under the editorship of Patricia Kay Galloway. The Mississippi Provincial Archives assembles and translates the documents in French archives relating to military, diplomatic, colonial, and economic activities in the lower Mississippi Valley from the founding of the original settlement at Ocean Springs, or “Old Biloxy,” in 1699 through the abandonment of the French Louisiana colony in 1763 at the close of the French and Indian War with England. The two present volumes focus on the years 1744 through 1763, but also contain material supplemental to the earlier volumes concerning the Natchez War (1730), the first Chickasaw campaign (1736), the second Chickasaw campaign (1739–1740), and additional documents that chart the rise of the Choctaw chief Red Shoe. The twenty-year period chronicled in-depth in Volumes IV and V was a time of intense rivalry with the English for Choctaw trade and allegiance. The documents chronicle the events of King George’s War (1744–1748) and of the concurrent struggle for control within the Choctaw nation that began with the revolt of a large faction led by Red Shoe and expanded into a civil war after the chief’s death at the hands of pro-French Choctaws. The settlement of this conflict was soon followed by the outbreak of the French and Indian War (1756–1763), at the end of which the French were forced to give up their colony—but not before concluding diplomatic arrangements with the Indians that would plague the victorious English for years to come. Mississippi Provincial Archives provides an invaluable source for understanding the history of French and English relations with the Indian nations of the South. But these collections also document many other aspects of the social history of the French colony, including the activities of merchants and other entrepreneurs, the development of the lumber industry along the coast, military justice and the founding of military outposts in the interior, and the relationships between the military governors and their civilian counterparts. Extensively annotated, these two volumes complete—after a delay of more than fifty years—a work of great significance for the study of the French Louisiana colony.

This is a collection of 35 of Cardinal Bernardin's addresses and writings on his formula of a 'seamless garment' to link the church's 'consistent ethic of life' in response to a range of social and moral issues. The pieces reflect Bernardin's thought on topics such as capital punishment, war and abortion.
The observations of James Pitot, a leading French businessman in New Orleans during the colonial period, constitute a primary source of information and analysis of the economic life of Louisiana and the lower Mississippi Valley during the last years of Spanish domination. Pitot prepared this commentary on colonial administration and delivered it personally to the French government to influence its views on business in the colony.
