Página 149 - ... understood even in the most ordinary matters. This was no little mortification to a man who burned with desire for the conversion of the savages, who in other ways was deficient neither in memory nor mind, and who had made this manifest enough by having for some years successfully taught rhetoric in France. In consequence of this, the temper of his mind was so opposed to the ways and manners of the savages, that he saw in them scarce anything that pleased him; the sight of them, their talk, and...
Página 77 - But on each of us lay the necessity of bidding farewell to that old home of sainte Marie,— to its structures, which, though plain, seemed, to the eyes of our poor Savages, master-works of art; and to its cultivated lands, which were promising us an abundant harvest. That spot must be forsaken, which I may...
Página 77 - ... requiring of us, — that, in times of dire distress, we should flee with the fleeing, accompanying them everywhere; that we should lose sight of none of these Christians, although it might be expedient to detain the bulk of our forces wherever the main body of fugitives might decide to settle down. We told off certain of our Fathers, to make some itinerant Missions, — some, in a small bark canoe, for voyaging along the coasts, and visiting the more distant islands of the great Lake, at sixty,...
Página 151 - ... the virtue of charity in a zeal for souls, and expend their lives for the salvation of their fellow-men. Never, for all that, would he break away from the Cross on which God had placed him; never did he ask that he might come down from it. On the contrary, in order to bind himself to it more inviolably, he obliged himself, by a vow, to remain there till death, so that he might die upon the Cross.
Página 77 - This was exactly what God was requiring of us, — that, in times of dire distress, we should flee with the fleeing, accompanying them everywhere; that we should lose sight of none of these Christians, although it might be expedient to detain the bulk of our forces wherever the main body of fugitives might decide to settle down. We told off certain of our Fathers, to make some itinerant Missions, — some, in a small bark canoe, for voyaging along the coasts, and visiting the more distant islands...
Página 145 - Huron reported the circumstance, adding that he had passed him, in his canoe, on this side of the stream; and that, to render his flight more easy, the Father had disburdened himself of his hat, and of a bag that contained his writings; also of a blanket, which our Missionaries use as robe and cloak, as mattress and cushion, for a bed, and for every other convenience, — even for a dwelling-place, when in the open country, and when they have, for the time, no other shelter. Since then, we have been...
Página 143 - Here is the sixth victim whom God has taken to himself from those of our Society whom He had called to this Mission of the Hurons, — there having been, as yet, not one of us who has died there without shedding his blood, and consummating the sacrifice in its entirety.

Página 111 - ... Fathers, who were in the nearest neighboring mission, received a remnant of these poor fugitive Christians, who arrived all out of breath, many of them all covered with their own blood. The night was one of continual alarm, owing to the fear, which had seized all, of a similar misfortune. Toward the break of day, it was ascertained from certain spies that the enemy had retired. The two Fathers at once set out, that they might themselves look upon a spectacle most sad indeed, but nevertheless...
Página 103 - In the Mountains, the people of which we name the Tobacco Nation, we have had, for some years past, two missions; in each were two of our Fathers. The one nearest to the enemy was that which bore the name of Saint Jean; its principal village, called by the same name, contained about five or six hundred families. It was a field watered by the sweat of one of the most excellent Missionaries who had dwelt in these regions, Father Charles...
