Pioneer travel in Upper
Canada by Edwin C. Guillet
published by the University of
Toronto Press was reviewed by
Dr. G. L. Morgan Smith at the
February meeting of 13ayfield•
branch of Huron County of
Historical Society.
During his talk, Dr, Smith
spoke of the development of
trade routes along rivers and
Indian trails.
"The Indians avoided the
open waters of the Great Lakes,
although Strickland, an employee
of the Canada Company,
described a large canoe with 25
Indians and several bales of fur
coming across the lake to
Goderich.
"The Ottawa was the great
route to the west, striking up to
Lake Nippissing and the
protected coastal waters of
Georgian Bay. This was
supplemented by the river
systems of the north shore of
Lake Ontario, especially the
Trent to Lake Simcoe and via
Lake Couchiching and the
Severn to Georgian Bay. This
was the route shown Champlain
when he first saw Lake Ontario,
it was the route considered the
most direct to Ontario, and this
mistaken idea was responsible
two centuries later for the
construction of the Trent canal.
Still a century later such a
failure to study the use of land
and communications prompted
the building of one of the first
railways in Canada West from
Cobourg to Rice Lake and
Peterborough. Needless to say
this was not economically viable,
jand today:there are few,aestigea
of thecroute."
Dr.' Smith mentioned the
Bayfield area and said that it had
probably served as Iroquois
hunting ground, he said that the
trail to this area was "from
Burlington to the Upper Thames
and south to Lake Erie, with a
branch from the West fork to
Lake Huron. I imagine this
involved a portage from Mitchell
to Dublin.
"We must remember that all
of Ontario was virgin forest at
the time, and the creeks and
rivers held much more water
than now. Draining the swamps,
cutting the timber and now, tile
drainage of our farms have
lowered our surface waters
greatly, so that mighty torrents
such as ,the Taddle are now
underground " sewers, and the
salmon have long since ceased to
spawn on the Humber and the
Don."
He traced the development of
the routes by water through a
variety of craft from the canoe
to the steamship. "The first ship
on Lake Huron was the Griffon,
built in 1679 by La Salle." It
was lost on a return voyage from
Green Bay in Lake Huron.
"The first stage coaches in
Upper Canada," said Dr. Smith,
"operated over the Niagara
portage in 1789. In our area the
first regular coach lines operated
from Hamilton through Gait and
Guelph, and then over the
Canada Company road to
Goderich. Earlier transport was
available from the opening of
the road in 1828, but the
conditions of travel were such
