[Transcriber's Note:
This text is intended for users whose text readers cannot use the "real"
(Unicode/UTF-8) version of the file. Characters that could not be fully
displayed have been "unpacked" and shown in brackets:
[)e] [)i] [)u] (vowel with breve or "short" sign)
[-e] (e with macron or "long" sign)
Except for [)i], all are rare. The "oe" ligature, also rare, is shown as
separate letters. The "cents" sign ¢ is used in place of the correct
character.
Bold or sans-serif type (rare) is shown =like this=. Except for footnote
markers, expanded diacritics and similar, brackets [ ] are in the
original.
Corrections and variant spellings are listed at the end of the e-text,
along with some details of vocabulary.
At the time this article was written, the Ungava district was part of
the Northwest Territories. It was transferred to Quebec in 1912. As of
spring 2012, Ungava corresponds loosely to the Nunavik administrative
division; maps may show either name.]
