In 1697, French trading posts in New France were suffering. A 10-year overstock in beaver pelts was having a disastrous effect on the economy. Jesuit missionaries were outraged at the practice of trading brandy to Native Americans. The court in France decided to close and abandon all but four western posts. Frontenac, de Buade, St. Joseph of Miami, and St. Louis of Illinois, were to remain open only as long as needed by the military. De Buade and St. Joseph were abandoned immediately by their garrisons; St. Louis was abandoned by 1702, leaving only Fort Frontenac.
