How did Joliet feel about Marquette?

Joliet thought Marquette lacked tact and cleanliness. In the
canoe, he often sat as far away from Marquette, as possible. He had
hopes that one day a mall would be named after him, because Joiet
felt he had way more fashion sense than Marquette. Low and behold,
there is a Louis Joliet Mall in Joliet, Illinois, today!!
