Baraga is sorry to have to inform the Bishop that Father Angelus Van Paemel will not become an Indian missionary. Baraga is quite displeased. Van Paemel has given up the study of the Indian language and intends to return to Detroit as soon as possible. Father Francis X. Pierz will be very disappointed. Baraga's mission in L'Anse is considerably increasing. 25 persons are preparing for baptism, besides the annual increase of newly born children. It would be a pity if this mission be abandoned. Baraga had never wished for a long life, but now he does. :: III-2-h A.L.S. English 1p. 8vo.
