Excerpt from Canada: A Geographical, Agricultural and Mineralogical Sketch The next area to be distinguished consists of the notre-dame range on the south side of the St Law rence which forms the belt whose course has just been described, with an average breadth of from thirty to forty miles. To the south and east of this, is a district of undulating land, which extends to the boundaries of the province in that direction. These two districts may for convenience in farther descrip tion be classed together, and they embrace the re gion which, is generally known as the eastern townships. By this term they are distinguished from the seigniories, which bound them to the north and west. To the north-east however, along the Chaudiere River, some few seigniories are found within the geographical limits of this third region.
