Biard's Relation de la Nouvelle France
Lyons: LOUIS MUGUET, 1616
Source: Text is reprinted from the original, in Lenox Library; Title-page is photographic facsimile of original, in Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris.
Peculiarities of Original: The text only, is paged. P. 191 is wrongly numbered, 181; p. 256 to the last page (340), are wrongly numbered, 263 to 338. Chap. xi. is wrongly numbered xii.; succeeding chapters are consecutively numbered therefrom, xiii., xiv., etc., except that Chap. xix. in this arrangement, is wrongly numbered xxi.; but this transposition of letters has not affected the numbering of subsequent chapters.
Chaps. i.-xxv. (correct numbering) are given in the present volume; the rest of this document will appear in Volume IV.
