'Point Noir, Trinity Rock, and Cape Eternity, Saguenay River', 1874. The banks of the Saguenay River, Quebec, Canada. 'For the rest of the day we are toiling through like wildernesses of bowlders, precipices, and mountains. We bid adieu to Trinity and Eternity at Point Noir, thread the desolate mazes of St. Louis Island, and soon are passing Point Crepe, where the rocks, the everlasting rocks, look in the distance like the channel of a dried-up cataract'. From "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In, A Delineation by Pen and Pencil of the Mountains, Rivers, Lakes...with Illustrations on Steel and Wood by Eminent American Artists" Vol. II, edited by William Cullen Bryant. [D. Appleton and Company, New York, 1874]
