Notes for Jean Pilote
1683 Engagé Illinois
Prisonniers des Iroquois 1684
April 30, 1685: nouveaux contrats
In 1683, after signing a contract with Aubert de la Chesnaye, and accompanied by Eustache Prevost, Martin Foisy, Laurent Benoit, dit Livernois, and others, he left on a fur trade expedition in Illinois for Mr. de la Durantaye and Le Chevalier de Baugy. Upon their return, mission accomplished, these coureurs des bois were ambushed and made prisonners of the Iroquois who then confiscated their seven canoes and their contents of furs and provisions. The Iroquois escorted them to Fort St-Louis where they were released.16
