Jesuit Mission to the Hurons, 1611-1650
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Historians are indebted to the wandering Missionaries of the Society of Jesus for their intimate knowledge of New France in the seventeenth century. 1 The Society of Jesus, called Jesuits, was founded by Saint Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556), a Spanish soldier and ecclesiastic, in 1534. 2The firsttwenty-five years of the life of Ignatius had been devoted to secular ideals.But while recovering from a severe leg wound after the Battle of Pamplona in 1521, the spark began to glow that gave him the powerful urge to serve the Lord.He attributed the origin of this spark to the fact that during convalescence his greatest consolation was 1 The records or Relations and letters of these Jesuit missionaries of New France were preserved in the Archives of Jesus in France, Rome, and Canada.Most of these documents have been reissued in Reuben Gold Thwaites (ed.),The Jesuit Relations and Allied Documents: Travels and ~lorations of the Jesuit Missionaries"'in New France 1610-1791 (73 vols.; ew York: Pagean't"Book Company, l959).Thwaites compilecrthese document s in the original French, Latin, and Italian texts with parallel English translations and notes, portraits, maps, and facsimilies and published them first in 1896-1901.Subsequent references to The Jesuit Relations and Allied Documents will appear as JR with the specific volume number.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
