46 (p. 185).--This young priest had sailed with De Monts, desiring to see the New World. On the shores of St. Mary's Bay, he became lost in the woods; De Monts searched for him, but in vain, and left the bay. A fortnight later, an expedition sent to St. Mary's Bay, to search for silver and iron ore, accidentally encountered poor Aubry, almost dead with fatigue and hunger, and brought him back to Port Royal. This rescue was especially gratifying to De Monts, as the priest's disappearance had caused a Protestant, who had quarreled with him about religious questions, to be accused of murdering Aubry.--_Champlain's Voyages_ (Prince Soc.), vol. ii., pp. 20, 21. 47 (p. 189). See vol. i., _note_ 4. 48 (p. 199).--One of the numerous names given to the St. Lawrence by early explorers and writers; it thus appears on the map of Jean Allefonsce, given in his _Cosmographie_ (Paris, ed., 1575), fol. 183^{A}; and is so named by Champlain, in his _Voyages_. The origin of the name Canada is variously explained; but there are two leading theories: (1) That the word signifies, in Iroquois, "town," or "village." See Laverdière's _Champlain_, p. 89, _note_ 4; Faillon's _Col. Fr._ vol. i., p. 14; _Hist. Mag._ vol. i., pp. 153, 217, 349; and _Mag. Amer. Hist._, vol. x., pp. 161, 162. (2) That it comes from another and similar Iroquois word, meaning "lake," being applied to the country as a region abounding in lakes. See _Hist. Mag._, vol. i., pp. 188, 315; cf. Winsor's _N. and C. Hist._ vol. iv., p. 67, _note_ 1.--Cf. Ferland's _Cours d'Histoire_, vol. i., p. 25. The name was applied in the earlier maps (e.g., Zaltieri, 1566; Ortelius, 1570; Judæis, 1593) to a district lying along the St Lawrence, between the Saguenay and Isle aux Coudres, or thereabouts. Later, it was given to all, or nearly all, of the valley of the St. Lawrence. See also vol. i., _note_ 6. 49 (p. 201).--This date is evidently obtained from the "Discorso d'un gran Capitano di Mare Francese," found in Ramusio's _Raccolta_ (Venice, 1556), vol. iii., p. 423. The "Discorso" is supposed to have been written in 1539; the name of the author was unknown to Ramusio himself, but is said by Estancelin, in _Recherches * * * des navigateurs Normands_ (Paris, 1832), to be Jean Parmentier, of Dieppe. See Winsor's _N. and C. Hist._, vol. iv., pp. 16, 63: cf. also Harrisse's _Discovery of North America_ (London, 1892), p. 180. _note_ 2, and D'Avezac's Introduction to Cartier's _Brief Recit_ (Tross reprint, 1865), fol. vii.; both say that the "Discorso" was written by Pierre Crignon, an astronomer and pilot, and a companion of Parmentier in his voyages.
