[Marcoux {RSv. Joseph) — coutinued. 
this work; nor have I seen any reference to an edition of this date. They con- 
tain, apparently, the same matter, in a modified form, as do pp. 37-38 of the 
edition of 1844 (No. 2455), the w's and g's in the earlier edition being changed to 
8'8 and k'a in the later. 
Concerning this work the Ahh^^ Cuoq writes as follows: '"I return the leaves 
of the Iroquois Catechism. They prove evidently that Mr. Joseph Marcoux, 
missionary of Sault St. Louis, had his catechism printed in 1823 at St. Philippe, 
a parish not far from Caughnawa, where the curiS had set up a printing press. 
Before receiving the three pages that yon have sent me, I did not even suspect 
its existence. I had never heard that the edition of 1842 (or '43?) had been pre- 
ceded by another. I had always regarded it as the first, and I am very sure that 
no traces remain in our missions of this precious relic of 1823." The Abb6 I 
think refers to the edition of 1844, the approval of which is " Donn^ h Montreal, 
le douze Septembre Mille-huit-cent-quarante-trois." See No. 2455.

"Besides the Arte and Doctrina, Marroquin seems tohave compiled aKachiquel 
dictionary. At any rate his name appears at the end of a Kachiquel dictionary 
in my possession, as also at the end of another in the Imperial Library of Paris. 
Both of these, however, are copies of a single original." — Sqiiier. 
" Sr. D. Francisco Marroquin, a native of the province of Santander in Spain, 
came to Mexico about the year 1530, and was consecrated as first bishop of Gua- 
temala in 153?. Under his administration the missions flourished greatly. He 
also established one among the nation of the Mames, which resulted in their 
language being reduced to writing; and afterwards there were printed in Mexico
