Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from American Ecclesiastical Review, Vol. 32: A Monthly Publication for the Clergy Among the brave and self-sacrificing early missionaries of Western America, few figure more prominently than does Bishop Louis Lootens, the first Vicar Apostolic, and Father Toussaint Mesplie, the pioneer secular priest of Idaho. The former was bom in Bruges, Belgium, and educated partly there and partly in Paris. Ordained in the French Capital by the first Bishop of Vancouver, Modest Demers, he came with him to Victoria in August, 1852, terminating the long and tedious journey by an Indian canoe-ride across Puget Sound. The latter, a native of France, was brought to Oregon whilst still in minor orders by its saintly pioneer priest and archbishop, F. N. Blanchet, who raised him to the sacred priesthood in his young archdiocese at St Paul in 1847. September of that year Father Mesplie began his ministry among the Calapuyas, Malalics and Tualotins in Willamette Valley. In 1849 he established a mission among the Chinooks at the mouth of the Columbia River, whence he attended the soldiers at Fort Astoria, as also the Chehalis, Clapsacks, and other tribes living along the banks of the Columbia up to Fort Vancouver. The evangelization of these Indians was labor indeed, demoralized as they were, not merely by their wild lives but through many years´ contact with rude sailors and unprincipled White traders and their associates.
