Manuscript, 1 p. l.pp. 1-185, 16°, belonging to 

 Surgeon-Major Hubert Neilson, Kingston, 'Can- 

 ada. I am indebted to the Abb6 Sasseville, Ste. 

 Foye, Canada, for an extended description of the 

 work, which I summarize as follows: On p. 1 

 is the heading Preces Ilinicse, followed by the 

 formula for the sign of the cross ; and this by

 d'adoration, p. 2. — Acte de foi, p. 3. — Acte 

 d'esperance, p. 4. — Acte d'amour, p. 5. — Acte 

 de remerciments, pp. 6-7. — [Acte de] demande, 

 p. 8. — [Acte de] offrande, p. 9,— Acte de con- 

 trition, p. 10. — Au commencement de la messe,

 ments, without heading.— Litany [du Saint nom

 Pp. 48-51 are occupied with hymns.— A canticle 

 "Sur malheureuse creature' of 45 stanzas ex- 

 tends from p. 52 to p. 66. This canticle is in the 

 form of a dialogue between God and a fallen 

 soul, and in the original French is well known 

 and much used in Canada.— Another canticle, 

 "Pour les blenheureux," pp. 67-71.— Pp. 72-93 

 (p. 86 missing) are blank.— Instructio pro mori- 

 bundis non babtizatis, pp. 94-103.— Pp. 104-137

P6re Allouez was missionary in the region of 

 Lake Superior and Lake Michigan in the year
