520 |a"The powerful position that the Kichesipirini Algonquins of Allumette Island occupied during the first half of the seventeenth century has been recognized by a number of historians. J.R. Miller referred in 1991 to "particularly well-situated groups" which "used their position and power to exact tolls from canoe brigades" and cited the painful lesson taught as late as 1650 to a Jesuit priest who failed to respect this reality. James Axtell similarly spoke in 1985 of the fact that "anyone wishing to pass up or down the Ottawa[River] was obliged to pay his respects and a gratuity to the band's fearsome one-eyed sachem, Tessoüat, which required a long circuit south of the island." Also in 1985, Bruce G. Trigger described commercial and diplomatic contacts by the Kichesipirini Algonquin with Anadabijou, the principal Montagnais chief at Tadoussac, in 1603 and(unsuccessfully) with the Dutch at Fort Orange in 1635. Trigger also suggested that Nicholas de Vignau may not have been lying when he said that he knew the route to the Northern Sea. He suggested that it was possible that Samuel de Champlain was misled by a chief concerned to protect the sovereignty of his people and their territory"--p. [1].
