=Tracy, Alexandre de Prouville, Marquis de= (1603-1670). Served in the
French army, and in 1655 recaptured Cayenne from the Dutch. In 1663
appointed lieutenant-general of all the French dominions in America,
and, after spending a year in the West Indies, reached Quebec, June 30,
1665. With the newly arrived Carignan-Salieres Regiment as his weapon,
at once initiated a vigorous policy against the Iroquois, and especially
the contumacious Mohawks. In 1666, with thirteen hundred men, marched
against the latter, burnt their villages, and drove them into the
woods. The following year deputies arrived at Quebec from all the
Iroquois tribes, suing for peace. Having secured to the colony a peace
which lasted for nearly twenty years, returned to France. =Index=: =F=
