Shea, J.G. 1903 |   | Allouez remarked about the Illinois use of bow and arrow: "They ordinarily carry only the warclub, bow, and a quiver full of arrows, which they discharge so adroitly and quickly, that men armed with guns, have hardly time to raise them to the shoulder. They also carry a large buckler made of skins of wild cattle, which is arrow-proof, and covers the whole body".
