New Orleans in the days of the American
clipper ships.

timbers of the ship are probably the actual

in 1695 established the beginning of the port
of Chicago.
• This great warehouse built by Tonti on the
north bank of the river was the actual begin-

• Tonti's warehouse was a house in every
sense. It housed the first glad social gather-
ings. It housed the men whose mission was
of peace. It housed men of letters and it
housed the seat of justice and law and held
a frontier as a nation grew.
