Hochelaga Depicta Or A New Picture Of Montreal

Excerpt from Hochelaga Depicta: Or a New Picture of Montreal, Embracing the Early History and Present State of the City and Island of Montreal In obtaining the Topographical information, many hours were sometimes spent in seeking for that which a few minutes would suflice to put into writing; not from any unwillingness on the part of those who had information to give, but from the very nature of the case. The gentlemen to whom enquiries were directed, are entitled to my own thanks, and those of the Publisher, for the courtesy and readiness with which those enquiries were answered. At first, it was intended to present to each a distinct acknowledgment; but the number has so increased, that it is hoped they will accept this general expression of obligation.
