Scope and Contents

Bonduel paid $2500 from his personal funds for the construction of the church, presbytery and school at Pointe Saint Ignace and the school at Mackinac. The whole cost $3500. Bishop Résé gave three hundred piastres of this amount, one hundred in materials and two hundred in cash. The rest was donated by subscription, without including the shares of the church, the cemetery, and the school of Point Saint Ignace which were given free by Louizon Martin and his wife of Point Saint Ignace. The presbytery of Mackinac was built through the generosity of Monsieur Samuel Abbott of that place, the church, by subscription at various times. Bonduel certifies that this memorandum of the temporal state of the parish of Mackinac and Pointe Saint Ignace has been given to the best of his conscience. :: III-2-g A.L.S. French 1p. 8vo.
