And

England
was
establishing
In

Canadian
North,
a
trading
company
with
the

virtually
of

Pierre

land

of

Superior.
They
returned
home
with

with
stories
of
a

and
fruitful

They
had
reached
the
upper
waters
of

They
had
tapped

great
fur

of

they

On

made
their
way
to
England.
We
next
hear
of
them
aboard
an
English
thlp,
bound
for
Hudson
Bay.
A
year
later
they
are
back
In
England
with
cargoes
of
furs.
And,
a
year
after
the
Company
of
the
West
Indies
lost
its
French
charter,
there
springs
into
be
ing,
under
a
charter
of
Clarls
II,
the
Company
of
Gentlemen
Adventurers
trading
Into
Hudson
Bay,
a
company
trading,
actively
under
Its
charter
to
tills
day.
The
company
of
the
Gentle'
men
Adventurers
or
the
Hudson's
Bsy
Company
as
we
now
know
It
wai
given
sweeping
powers.
It
had
rights
of
government.
It
wafr
given
ownership
of
a
territory
having
the
area
of
a
vast
empire.
Within
or
adjacent
to
its
ter
rltory,
the
company
could
make
peace
or
war
"with
any
prince
or
people
whatsoever
that
are
not
Christians.''
It
had
the
sole
right
of
trade,-
It
had
the
Royalty
of
the
Sea,
It
had
all
mines,
"as
well
discovered,
as
not
dls
covered,
of
gold,
sliver,
gems
and
prec
lou
stones,"
And
the
Company
of
the
Gentlemen
Adventurers-was
held
to
pay.iyearly
two
elks
and
..two
black
beavers
"whensoever,
and
s
often
as
we.
our
heirs
and
successors
shall
happen
to
enter
Into

countries,
territories
and
regions

granted."
Two
centuries
were
to
pass,
the
Dominion
of
Canada
was
to
come
Into
being,
before
the
company
of
the
Oentlemen
Adventurers
was
to
surrender,
for
compensation,
its
rights
to
ownership
of
the
great
North
West,
was
to
surrender
its
powers
of
Government,
and
was
to
become
a
private
trading
corporation.
Not

that
surrender

And,
only
a

months
ago,
Jhe

of
Canada
had
the
Issue
