"The Jesuit Relations and Allied Documents, Vol. 6: Quebec, 1633-1634" by Reuben Gold Thwaites is a historical account published in the late 19th century. This volume is part of a series documenting the travels and explorations of Jesuit missionaries in New France during the early 17th century. It comprises the writings of Paul le Jeune, recounting the experiences of Jesuit missionaries as they sought to evangelize among Indigenous peoples, particularly focusing on the interactions between the French settlers and the Hurons in Quebec. At the start of this volume, the narrative sets the scene for the challenges faced by the missionaries in their efforts to establish relationships with local tribes, specifically the Hurons. It details a council held by the Hurons, during which they express concerns regarding the potential danger posed to the French by members of rival tribes. The missionaries' plans for travel are interrupted due to tensions across tribal alliances, reflecting the delicate balance of peace that needs to be maintained for their mission to succeed. The opening provides insight into the preparations and complexities involved in their attempts to spread Christianity while offering a glimpse into the social and political realities of life in New France during this era.
