Church settings for June weddings
If you were to delve into your
family tree and discover your
great-great-grandfather was
jailed, or maybe even hung, for
being a cattle thief you'd likely
keep it hushed,
Yet, our ancestors who
negotiated with the Indians of
that era were extoled as heroes of
the day. Their polished lies,
crooked ways, and 'legal'
maneuvers make great grand-
father look like an novice in
comparison.
Proudly we celebrate Canada's
birthday, but there's nothing to
boast about in the unjust manner
the Canadian Indians were
treated, and are often still
treated.
Back then, to ease the white
man's conscience, the Indians
were not thought of as having
human needs orfeelings.In some
parts of North America Indian
bounties were offered along with
wolf bounties.
The Indians, trusting and
honorable, had their lush valleys
and rich plains slyly wrested
from them without them often
knowing what was happening.
Many Indian bands sent their
chief councillors to meet with the
white men. believing they were
meeting to smoke the pipe of
peace in friendship and in good
faith.
It was only after they arrived
that they were given some hint of
what might be going on.
The following is an expert from
the dignified plea of an Indian
chief to the white men at one of
these councils:
"You do not know our wishes.
Our people wonder what has
brought you so far from your
homes.
"Your young men have invited
us to come and light the council
fire; we are here to smoke the
pipe of peoce, but not to sell our
lands.
"You flock to our shores; our
waters have grown warm; our
lands melt like a cake of ice; our
possessions have grown smaller
and smaller.
"The warm wave of the white
man rolls in upon us and melts us
away. Our women reproach us;
our children want homes. Shall
we sell from under them the spot,
where they spread their
blankets?
"We have not called you here.
We smoke with you the pipe of
peace."'
Nevertheless, the treaty was
finally made, as were hundreds
of others, and the Indians
returned to their lodges betrayed
into believing the white man had
acted in their best interests.
We continued to betray them
until now they put little or no
trust in us.
We have many things in our
country's heritage of which to be
proud . . . the treatment of our
'first Canadians' is not one of
them.
There is much hard work ahead
to gain better understanding, and
toward fair treatment of the
Indians. Just because they reject
much of what they see in the
character of our society doesn't
make them wrong or ignorant,
It could be they're just wiser.
More and more we ponder the
question, "Did we destroy a
civilization superior to our own?"
A DRUM TO BEAT UPON
A good thing to come out of our
local history, is a book just
recently published, A Drum to
Beat Upon, by Joseph L. Wooden,
principal of South Huron District
High School.
Mr. Wooden has competently
compiled the fascinating story of
the French Canadian settlement
north of Grand Bend, known as
St. Joseph.
The history of the settlement is
traced back to its beginnings
around the middle 1800's when
men bearing the names of
several well known district
families arrived on the scene.
Among these pioneers were
Gelinas, Bedard, Ducharme,
Denomme, Charrette, Mousseau,
Durand, Corriveau, Masse and
Cantin. Their hardships and
lifestyle are described in pic-
turesque detail.
A Drum to Beat Upon also
portrays the dreams, and
schemes of the most ad-
venturesome entrepreneur
produced by this French com-
munity — Narcisse Cantin.
It was he who drew up plans
for the town of St. Joseph which
he envisioned as a thriving
harbour with docks and ancillary
facilities. He dreamed the town
would be the terminus of a canal
crossing South Western Ontario to
Lake Erie.
His heady, promotional ac-
tivities make this section of the
book especially stimulating.
A Drum to Beat Upon will
kindle an interest in this part of
our history and should be
required reading for everyone in
Huron County.
It's at your book store and
library.
