From the latter point we ascended the Wisconsin to the portage into Fox River, and descended the latter to Green Bay.

At this point, the expedition was divided, a part going north, in order to trace the shores to Michilimackinack, and part steering south, by the shores of Lake Michigan to Chicago.

At the latter place, another division was made, Governor Cass and suite proceeding on horseback, across the peninsula of Michigan, and Captain Douglass and myself completing the survey of the eastern coast of Michigan, and rejoining the party detached to strike Michilimackinack.

The Huron shores were coasted to the head of the River St.Clair and Detroit.
