Manuscript ; among the papers of Cardinal 

 Mezzofanti in the Biblioteca Comunale at 

 Bologna. A transcript in the handwriting of 

 the cardinal is also in the same collection, and 

 another is preserved among the manuscripts 

 of Abbe Thavenet in the Biblioteca Vittorio 

 Emmanuele at Eome. 



The epistle begins with these words; 

 " Ketchi-ayamie-oyossiminang ; Meya-nabich- 

 kawatch tebeniminang Jesos ondaji akking, 

 ki nipakwiwiui-anamikkonimin songa Nina- 

 went najwayakisiyang Oraani-winini kaye

 Pater ; Qui vices Domini nostri Jesu Christi 

 in orbe terrarum geris; ad pedes sanctitatis 

 tuae provolutis tribubus Algonquinorum et 

 Nipissingorum sinas te salutare." At the end 

 are subscribed the names of eleven Indians, 

 including that of the author, and below: 

 "Durocher P.t'« Mis." Ch. de Bellefeuille 

 P. *'« Direct. ■■ de la Mission." 



The above description is from Teza (E.) 

 Saggi inediti di lingue amerieane, pp. 20, 21. 

 The author is mentioned as follows in a letter 

 of Pere Durocher, printed in Teza (E.) Intorno 

 agli studi del Thavenet, p. 5: "Mon Ciceron 

 nipising, Ignace Chawanabe qui, pour le dire 

 en passant, a le merite de la composition du 

 discours algonquin en reponse au href de sa 

 saintet6 Gregoire xvi." In another letter Du- 

 rocher writes, Nov. 5, 1834: " Chawanabe , . . 

 de I'aveu de tons mes sauvages, est celui qui 

 possede le mieux la langue."

Manuscript, 62 pp. 12°, formerly in possession 

 of Rev. Eugene Yetromile, Biddeford, Maine. 



In a letter to Rev. J. M. Finotti, dated from 

 Eastport, Jan. 19, 1875, Father Vetromile gives 

 the following account of the manuscript : 



" When I was in Worcester a small old mss. 

 prayer book of 62 pages, 22'' [12°?] was found 

 amongst some old papers and books for sale. 

 A friend of mine purchased it, and finding it 

 to be in Indian and French made a present of 

 it to me. I found it to be a manual of prayers 

 and catechism in Abnaki language, written by 

 ^^ Francis Ciquard, missionary in New Bruns- 

 wick, written in 1792. He could not be the 

 author of them, because he did not know the 

 language; nor F". Rasles could have written 

 them, because when he commenced his diction- 

 ary on the Kennebec, 1791 [sic], these Indians 

 had no missionary, as I know from a letter from 

 Bp: Carroll of Baltimore (in my possession). 

 In 1791 [sic] F^ Rasles had been only one year 

 amongst the Indians at Norridgewark, when 

 he commenced his valuable dictionary. F"". 

 Ciquard arrived from France to Baltimore in 

 1792, and Bp. Carroll sent him immediately
