    10-20866 r97. General Collections, Library of Congress. Copyright status not determined; refer to accompanying matter.

    This volume is a collection of several different kinds of important historical documents published by the Minnesota Historical Society. It devotes considerable space to the papers and speeches presented on the Society's fiftieth anniversary and to the obituaries of various Society members. Other lengthy sections address topics such as Minnesota's transportation history, the Ojibwe, Father Louis Hennepin, and local histories of Duluth, St. Louis County, St. Paul, and Redwood County. There are also sections on the beginnings of Minnesota's Episcopal Church, the lumber industry, the ordinance of 1787, the Sioux (including the 1862 uprising), the Louisiana Purchase and Spanish policy in America. There is also information on the dual origin of Minnesota from land ceded by Britain (1783) and by France (1803), and various aspects of territorial history. There are also biographical notes and reminiscences as well as an account by General Edwin Cooley Mason (1831-1898), a former Inspector General of the Military Department of the Columbia, relating how the San Juan Islands in Washington were eventually acknowledged as the northwest boundary of the United States. The Ojibwe material is written by the Reverend Joseph A. Gilfillan (1838-1913), a Protestant Episcopal missionary on the White Earth Indian Reservation (1872-1898), and by Henry R. Whipple, the first Protestant Episcopal Bishop of Minnesota and an advocate for reforming the policies and administration of U.S. Indian affairs. The volume is indexed.
