| Title | Winter Quarters of Father Marquette, 1674 |
| Description | Postcard. The Winter Quarters of Father Marquette, 1674, from the painting by Lawrence C. Earle. At the mouth of the Arkansas River, Jolliet and Marquette encountered hostile Indians and Spaniards who forced them to return north. Once, there, the explorers were introduced to the Illinois River route and the portage at Che-cau-gou by which they were able to return to their Mission of St. Xavier at Green Bay. Marquette wintered at that same portage on his second expedition to the area in 1674-1675. |
