amongst these ludians. T have also this sec- 

 cud letter of Bp. Carroll, which was sent and 

 delirei-ed by F". Ciquard. 



•'So these prayers and catechism are very 

 old and their author is not known. I have 

 scrupulously preserved them, corrected, and 

 embodied in my prayer book \i. e. Indian good 

 book, New York, 1856, 1857, 18581, not allowing 

 a single alteration. The Bishop wanted me to 

 alter the- form of Baptism in Indian, but I 

 declined for the respect of that old formula, 

 and the more I learned the Indian language, 

 the more I found to be correct, and now I do 

 not think that it could be put in better Indian. 

 I do not know of any language of my knowl- 

 edge, the Greek and Latin included, that could 

 express the form of baptism in a theological 

 point of view as well as the Indian does." 



Eev. Francis Ciquard was a native of Cler- 

 mont, in France. He was ordained priest in 

 1779, and in 1792 was sent to America. Bishop 

 Carroll at once placed him in charge of the 

 Penobscot Indians at Old Town. At this mis- 

 sion he remained for about ten years, when he 

 removed to take charge of the Indians of 

 Tobique and St. Anne, near Fredericton, in 

 New Brunswick. From 1812 to 1815 he was 

 missionary of the Abnaki Indians at Saint 

 Francis. He died at Montreal.
