Colonial wars which end where they began, with indecisive treaties tending to further bloodshed, may well be the subject of national sorrow and regret; but it is otherwise when a great issue has been achieved, and when it has been decided once for all what lines shall be laid down for the {349} future of a great country, not yet peopled as it will be in the coming time. Then the millions of money, which seem to have been wasted, are found to have been invested for the good of men; and the mourners for the lost sorrow not as without hope, inasmuch as those who have gone have died that others may live. The foundations of peoples are the nameless dead, who have been laid amid North American forests or under the bare veldt of South Africa. {350} APPENDIX I LIST OF FRENCH GOVERNORS OF CANADA PERIOD Samuel de Champlain . . . . . . . . 1632-1635 Chevalier de Montmagny . . . . . . . 1636-1648 Chevalier d'Ailleboust . . . . . . . 1648-1651 Jean de Lauzon . . . . . . . . . . . 1651-1657 Vicomte d'Argenson . . . . . . . . . 1658-1661 Baron d'Avaugour . . . . . . . . . . 1661-1663 Sieur de Mésy . . . . . . . . . . . 1663-1665 Marquis de Tracy . . . . . . . . . . 1665-1667 Chevalier de Courcelles[1] . . . . . 1665-1672 Comte de Frontenac . . . . . . . . . 1672-1682 Sieur de la Barre . . . . . . . . . 1682-1685 Marquis de Denonville . . . . . . . 1685-1689 Comte de Frontenac . . . . . . . . . 1689-1698 Chevalier de Callières . . . . . . . 1699-1703 Marquis de Vaudreuil . . . . . . . . 1703-1725 Marquis de Beauharnois . . . . . . . 1726-1747 Comte de la Galissonière . . . . . . 1747-1749 Marquis de la Jonquière . . . . . . 1749-1752 Marquis Duquesne . . . . . . . . . . 1752-1755 Marquis de Vaudreuil[2] . . . . . . 1755-1760 [Footnote 1: While Tracy was in Canada he was Governor-General, and Courcelles was Governor.] [Footnote 2: Son of the previous Governor of that name.] {351} APPENDIX II DATES OF THE PRINCIPAL EVENTS IN THE HISTORY OF CANADA DOWN TO 1763 YEAR North America discovered by Cabot . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1497 Cartier's first voyage . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1534 Cartier's second voyage and discovery of the St. Lawrence . . . 1535 Champlain's first voyage to North America . . . . . . . . . . . 1603 Founding of Port Royal . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1605 Quebec founded by Champlain . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1608 Hudson discovers the Hudson River . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1609 Hudson discovers Hudson Bay . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1610 Port Royal destroyed by Argall . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1613 Grant of Acadia to Sir W.
