 the mission on the Saskatchewan, he revised 

 his Cree manuscripts, and in 1872 again visited 

 Montreal to arrange for their printing. He 

 visited Europe the same year, returned in 1873 

 and was appointed parish priest at St. Mary of 

 Winnipeg, where he remained until 1876, when 

 he was appointed an agent for the immigration 

 of French Canadians to Manitoba, retaining 

 this position for three years. In 1879 Father 

 Lacombe again visited Europe as a delegate to 

 the Oblate council, and upon his return was 

 made chaplain to attend the Catholics working 

 along the line of the Canadian Pacific Kail-

 mained two years. In 1882 he returned to his 

 work among the Indians of the far ISTorth-west, 

 his headquarters for some years being at Cal- 

 gary and later at MacLeod.
