Manuscript, French-Ottawa, in the library 

 of McGill College, Montreal, Canada. Alpha- 

 betically arranged by French words. It is 

 curiously paged ; beginning with page 1 on the 

 recto of the first leaf, the numbering is contin- 

 uous on the rectos to p. 184, which includes 

 about half of the letter E ; pp. 185-396 (end of 

 the letter Q) are numbered on the rectos and 

 versos of the remaining leaves ; and pp. 397- 

 581 are the versos of the first leaves, which are 

 numbered 1-184 on the rectos. The volume is 

 bouud, legibly written, and well preserved. 



-a. note on the fly leaf says the work was be- 

 gun 16 Aug. 1640 [sic] ; another: " This book is 

 the property of Adam Macruder of Montreal ;"

and another: "Now belongs to Andro H. Ar- 

 nolds, purchased at the sale of the late Ma- 

 crudtr's eflects, 1846." 



I have placed the work under Du Jaunay upon 

 the authority of the Rev. A, E. Jones of St. 

 Mary's College, Montreal, a gentleman well 

 versed in the history of the missions and mis- 

 sionaries of the Catholic church in Canada, 

 who writes me as follows concerning the au- 

 thorship : 



"You ask me howl know that the Indian 

 dictionary at McGill College was the work of 

 Father Du Jaunay. Here is positive evi- 

 dence : The labour entailed in completing each 

 letter has some special patron. He places the 

 letter D under the protection of the Blessed 

 Virgin while presenting Our Lord in the tem- 

 ple: 



"'D — Sub protectione Deiparae Yirginis 

 Filium suum offerentis, quod festum araabile 

 ante hos dies quindecim celebrabamus, quo die 

 [2 Feb.] vota suae professionis emittebat caris- 

 simus socius mens P. de la Morinie ; item sub 

 protectione x'' a diabolo tentati et jejunantis, 

 quae stupenda Domini Nostri Dei Hominis 

 eras in evangelio legemus prima Quadragesimae 

 Dominica,' etc. 



" That is to say, he undertook the letter D on 

 Saturday the 18th day of February, 1741, fif- 

 teen days after the feast of the Purification, 

 2d Feb., and on the eve of the first Sunday of 

 Lent. Easter that year fell on the 2d of April, 

 Ash Wednesday on the 15th of February, and 

 the first Sunday of Lent on Feb. 19. I have in 

 my possession the official record of Father de 

 la Morinie's last vows on profession. They 

 were taken at St. Ignace, Michilimakina, on 

 the 2d of February, 1741, in the presence of F. 

 Du Jaunay, his companion in that mission."
