This work is an outcome of the enterprise 

 of Father Le Jeune, of Kamloojis, British 

 Columbia, who has transcribed Bishop Durien's 

 Jargon translation of the bible history into the 

 cliaracters adopted by him for teaching his 

 Indian charges to read and write ; a description 

 of which will be found in this bibliograpliy 

 under his name. His notes have been repro- 

 duced l)y him. with the aid of the mimeogr.iph, 

 on sheets the size of those in tlie edition of the 

 bible history in English, with which they have 

 been interleaved. When finished it will be 

 issued in an edition of 200, that number of 

 copies of the edition in Engli.sh having been 

 furnished by Father St. Onge, of Troy, N. Y.

I have in my library a copy of each of two 

 editions of a "Chinook Vocabulary," with 

 imprints of 1880 and 1892, on the respective title 

 pages of which appears the name of Bishop 

 Durieu. These I had placed under his name, 



Durieu (P.) — -Continued. 



but in a letter to njc, dated November 16, 1892, 

 the bi.shop modestly disclaims their authorship, 

 wliicli he attributes to Father J. M. R. 

 Le Jeune, under whose name, with accompa- 

 nying explanations, they will be found in this 

 bibliography.

The Rev. A. (i. Morice, of .Stuart's Lake 

 Mission, British Columbia, a famous Athapas- 

 can scholar, has kindly furnished me the fol- 

 lowing brief account of this writer: 



" Bisliop Paul Durieu was born at St. Pal-de- 

 Mous, in the diocese of Puy. France, December 

 3, 18.30. After his course in classics he entered 

 the novitiate of the Oblates at Xotre Dame de 

 I'Ozier in 1847 and made his religious profession 

 in 1849. He was oi'dained ])riest at Marseilles 

 March 11, 1854, and was sent to the ujissions of 

 Oregon, where he occupied, successively, sev- 

 eral posts. At the breaking out of the rebellion 

 among the Yakania Indians he had to leave for 

 tlie .Je.suit mission at Spokane. He was after- 

 wards sent to Victoria and then to Okanagau 

 by his superiors. Tiience lie was sent as 

 superior of the Fort Rupert Mission, and when, 

 on June 2, 187"), lie was appointed coadjutor 

 bishop of British Ccdumbia, he was superior of 

 St. Charles House at New Westminster. On 

 June 3, 1890, he .succeeded Bishop L. T.DHer- 

 bainez as vicar apostolic of British Columbia. 



" He understands l)ut docs not speak several 

 Salishan dialects, and he is especially noted for 

 his unqualified success among the Indians."
