Notes

  • -  "New series".
  • -  The original text: "Mémoire sur le projet d'establir une nouvelle colonie au Mississipi ou Louisiane, joint à lettre de M. Argoud, procureur des prises, du 10 décembre 1697" was printed "Découvertes et établissements des Français dans l'ouest et dans le sud de l'Amérique Septentrionale ... par Pierre Margry," Paris, 1876-86, v. 4, p. 21-34. Though written in the interest of Rémonville's projects, he is mentioned in the third person, and the Memoir appears to be by the same person as the author of the letter which it accompanies.
