River memorial marks Mallet brothers wanderings
Canadian traders Pierre and Paul Mallet pursued Santa Fe wealth, guiding later expeditions from New Orleans up the Mississippi. After splits and a dry year, Bruyere abandoned the route. The Mallets returned to Canada and faded, but the Canadian River now serves as a 760 mile memorial to their ventures.

Nathanial Palmer’s Antarctic voyage sets early record
The 1820 voyage of Nathanial Palmer, a Connecticut Yankee teen captain, on the sloop Hero, reached the northern edge of Antarctica. The ship, only 50 feet long, penetrated farther south than any craft of its time and predated modern polar milestones by nearly a century. Palmer described the voyage as guided by a bold, light driven course toward unknown sealing grounds afigure of sea and sky.
