VIII. Of the Great Work which Kuloskap did in the Land
of Tewapskak (Annapolis).
In all the land and everywhere in the Eastland, there is nowhere where it does not show what Kuloskap did. Marks are still visible in the rivers, on the great lakes and on mountains; at Mount Desert, along the shore and along by St. Johns, N. B., and in Nova Scotia; even in Newfoundland. There is a wonderful road from Kwesola-legek as far as Parsborough following the river. This road is called the Causeway. He intended to visit Partridge Island, an island (?) at the mouth of the St. John's River and Cape Blomidon.
But those who are with him are weary of the sea: "Let us cross over by land," they decide. While they are resting and getting ready to pass over, Kuloskap works magic power; he does a great thing; it shall be recalled perpetually, indeed forever; while a little time was passing, he constructed a magnificent ridge; a fine piece of work.
