Indians and paddlers mark 300th Joliet Marquette voyage
Indian pickets joined white paddlers to honor the 300th anniversary of Joliet and Marquette’s 1673 discovery. About 250 canoes and many motorboats accompanied seven Illinois canoeists down the Wisconsin to the Mississippi as a 2,900 mile replica voyage began May 17. A crowd of 2,000 watched while about 75 Indians protested historic treatment by whites. Robert Funmaker of Wisconsin Dells urged the crowd, labeling the exploration a prelude to European exploitation.
