On i\w 2Tth Novenil)er, 1023, tho descent to the Lower Town had been opened out and made more practicable ; we would iiuagino it must have uiuh'rgono another lev«'llini2," to admit of tho ascent of the iirst horse, ^vho paced tho streets of Quebec— the stud presented from France as a gift to His Excellency, Charles lluault de Montmagny, in ]()t8. Though horned cattle existed in the colony as early as 1023, oxen were i'or tho Iirst time used to plough on tho 2Tth April, l(j2S. Champlain's hal)itali()n stood in tho Lower Town, on the site where the little Church of M'olrc- JJamc-de.-la-Vidoiic was subsequently erecti'd. The iirst European settler in the Upper Town was a l\uisian apothe* cary — by name Louis llebert — who in llJlT, set to clearing- some land for agricidtural purposes, where now stand tho IJasilica and the Seminary, and that area ot ground extend- in,2f from Sainto-Famille Street to the Jb)tel-Dieu. Hebert built himself a tenement — the historian Laverdiero thinks — where the Archbishop's Talace now stands, ^i^ also erected a mill (a wind-mill probably) on tliat point of Saint Joseph Street which connects with Saint Francois and Saint Flavien Streets. Ilcbert'.-j house and his neighbor Guillaume Couillard's (tho foundations of which were dis- covered in 18GG by the Abbe Lavcrdiere, in the Seminary Clarden, in rear and facing the entrance of the old wing; of tho Seminary) seem to have been tho iirst structures raised in the Upper Town.

Born in Uuienne, oralauiily disiinuuij^hed at the bar, Bigot, prior to coming to Canada had occupied the high post ol" Litendant in Louisianna. Li siature, lie was small — but well Ibnned ; — active — lull ol' j)luck — Ibnd of display and pleasure — an inveterate gambler. Had he con- iined his operations merely to trading, his commercial ventures would have excited lillle blame, trading having been a practice indukved in by several other high colonial oilicials. His salary Avas totally inadecpiate to the impor- tance of his oiliee, and quite iiisuliieient to meet the exi)en- diture his exalted position led him into, jlis speculations, his venality, the extortions practised on the community ])y his heartless minions : this is what has surrounded his memory with eternal infamv and made his name a bv-word ibr scorn. There existed, at Quebec, a u/il>' coinpo.-ed of the Intendaiit's secretary, IJeschenaux ; of tlie Commissary (rcneral of ►Supplies, Cadet ; of the Town-Major, Ungues rC'an ; of the Treasurer-General, Iinbert. Trail was Ihe Chief and Bigot tlie Clreat Cliief of tliis nefarious associa- tion. Between Bigot and Tean, another link existed. Pean's favor at Court lay in the charms of his wile.

In IToij, tho "Nvlioat harvest having failed, and the pro- duce of former years having been carried out of Canada or else stored in the magazine of Bigot's ring, the people of Canada -were reduced to starvation : in many instances they had to subsist on horse llesh and decayed codfish. Instead of having recourse to tlie Avheat stored here, the Intendanfs minions led him to beUeve that wheat was not so scarce as the peasantry pretended — that the peasants refused to sell it, merely in anticipation of obtaining still higher rates; that the Intendant, they argued, ought to issue orders for domiciliary visits in the rural districts ; aiul levy a tax on oaah inhabitant of tho country, for tho maintena'.icL' of the residents in the city, and of the troops. Statements were made out, shewing the rations required to prevent the people from dying of hunger. Cadet was (.'barged with tlif raising of this vexatious impost. In a very short time, lu' and iiis clerks had overrun tlie country, appropriating more wheat than was necessary, fcjome of the unfortunate peasants, Avho saw in the loss of their seed wheat starvation and death, loudly complained. A il-w called at the Intendanfs Talace, but the heartless D»''sche- naux, tho Intendant's Secretary, was ever on tJie watch and had them questioned by his cnip/oi/cs, and whcu tlie object of their visit was discovered, they were ushered into the presence of Deschenaux, who insulted them and threat- ened to have them imprisoned for thus presuming to complain to the Intendant. Bigot was afterwards advised of their visit, and when tht-y appeared before him they were so maltreated and bullied that they left, happy at believing that they had not been thrown into prison ; soon, • Sorvatits, laquais and iiDboJics were nanici.l Eturo-kocperi', '■Ittir {'jnorimct «t li-iir batmtis nt/uicttt point un'jbilunU)'' f|i)' llm M^iuuire"! l7.HI-Ci.'. — 31 — none ted to complain ]!„,ad ,vas getting scarcov every : , !^; , ," "" '""'""»'«• P™o"« to distribute Z J.oms .odulously-patornallj- walchcl over ir <■„,,; Ha. then that-da„„tl...
