notes:
Shoal Lake, in the extreme west of present-day Ontario or eastern Manitoba is where these native Americans were encountered. Franklin rested at this hunting tent for a day and was fed boiled moose meat.Franklin's expedition sailed in Hudson's Bay Company ships to try to map the northern part of Canada and to discover a northwest passage by land. Midshipmen Hood and Back were attached to the expedition because of their scientific and artistic abilities. Hood was the primary surveyor and draughtsman; he died in September, 1821, shot by Michel Terohaute, a voyageur or guide. Finden, the engraver, took considerable liberties with the original drawings.Image placed horizontally on page.
