Thre Jean-Marie Raphael Le Jeuno was born 

 at Pleybert Christ, Finist^re, France, April 12, 

 1855, and came to British Columbia as a mis- 

 sionary priest in October, 1879. He made his 

 first acquaintance with the Thompson Indians 

 in June, 1880, and has been among them ever 

 since. He began at once to study their lan- 

 guage and was able to express himself easily 

 in that language after a few mouths. When he 

 first came he found about a dozen Indians who 

 knew a few prayers and a little of a catechism 

 in the Thompson language, composed mostly 

 by Right Rev. Bishop Durieu, O. M. I., the 

 present bishop of New Westminster. From 

 1880 to 1882 he traveled ouly between Tale and 

 Lytton, 57 miles, trying to make acquaintance 

 with as many natives as he could in that dis- 

 trict. Since 1882 he has had to visit also the 

 Nicola Indians, who speak the Thompson lan- 

 guage, and the Douglas Lake Indians, who 

 are a branch of the Okanagan family, and had 

 occasion to become acquainted with the Okan- 

 agan language, in which he composed and 

 revised most of the prayers they have in use up 

 to the i)resent. Since June 1, 1891, he has also 

 had to deal with the Shushwap Indians, and, 

 as the language is similar to that in use by the 

 Indians of Thompson River, he very soon 

 became familiar with it. 



He tried several years ago to teach the In- 

 dians to read iu the English characters, but 

 witliout avail, and two years ago he undertook 

 totea(^h them in shorthand, experimenting first 

 upon a young Indian boy who learned the short- 

 hand after a single lesson and began to help 

 him teach the others. The work went on 

 slowly until last winter, when they began to be 

 interested iu it all over the country, and since 

 then they have been learning it with eagerness 

 and tcachiug it to one another.
