(page 34) Cadillac's attacks because he had not succeeded in having the Miami move to the new post on the Detroit River. To this circumstance we owe two letters from the missionaries explaining their stand in the matter.²⁸ Some time in the summer of 1702, Father Mermet went as chaplain to the post which Juchereau was trying to build on the Ohio near the present city of Cairo, Illinois.²⁹ Juchereau died a year later, and the post was abandoned in 1704. Father Mermet seems never to have returned to the St. Joseph Mission. His later years were spent in the Illinois mission, where he died, September 15, 1716.³⁰

Father Mermet's successor as assistant to Father Aveneau was Father Jean Baptiste Chardon.³¹ Coming to Canada in 1699, he had been sent to the western mission in 1701. He was probably stationed at Mackinac for a time before being appointed to the St. Joseph Mission. He appears there for the first time in 1705.³² The following year a projected raid upon the Miami by the Ottawa from Mackinac was foiled, but fears were felt for the safety of the missionaries. Their superior wrote to Vaudreuil:

I asked the savages whether I could safely send a boat[load] of Frenchmen to St. Joseph['s] River; they replied that I could do so, and have even escorted me there, seeming to take an interest in the priests there; for while they are there, they do not think they are at liberty to make war on the Miamis as they would like to do. For this reason they would be pleased to see the priests all out of this post; but I do not think that you should desire it, for it is the most important after Mishilimakina. . .³³

Evidently the danger was not very real, for Father Chardon is called "missionary to the Poutouatamis" in a report from Vaudreuil to the home government at the end of 1708.³⁴

(page 35)

Out of the darkness which envelops the history of the mission, there flashes a charming picture in the closing days of Father Chardon's ministry. Father Gabriel Marest, missionary at Kaskaskia, decided to visit Mackinac in the spring of 1711 to confer with the Superior of the missions. Holding that office was his own brother, Joseph, whom he had not seen for fifteen years. On the way up, Father Gabriel determined to visit his confrere on the St. Joseph.

Hence I made up my mind to go to the St. Joseph, to the Pouteautamie mission which is in charge of Father Chardon. In nine days' time I accomplished this second journey which is seventy leagues, sometimes on the swift current of the river, and sometimes cutting across country. . .

As I approached the Pouteautamis village, the Lord deigned to reimburse me for all my pains by one of those unexpected happenings which he sometimes reserves for the consolation of His servants. Some Indians who were seeding their land, having seen me from afar, went to advise Father Chardon of my approach. The Father came straightway to meet me accompanied by another Jesuit. What a joyful surprise it was to see my brother, who fell on my neck to embrace me. For fifteen years we had been separated without any hope of ever meeting each other. It is true that I was on my way to meet him; but our reunion was to be at Michillimakinac and not a hundred leagues below. God had doubtless inspired him to make at this time a visitation to the St. Joseph mission in order to have me forget in a moment all my past distress. We both thanked the divine Mercy which brought us together from such widely separated places to give us a consolation which is better felt than expressed. Father Chardon shared in the happiness of this joyful reunion, and showed us all the attention we could expect from his goodness. Having stayed eight days at the mission, my brother and I, in his canoe, went on to Michillimakinac.³⁵

Upon his return from Mackina, Father Marest revisited Father Chardon, and remained with him for a fortnight. He thus describes his host.

He is a missionary full of zeal, and with a rare talent for languages. He knows nearly ever Indian tongue spoken on the Lakes; he has even learned enough Illinois to make himself understood, although he sees these Indians only occasionally when they come to visit his village; (page 36) for the Pouteautamis and the Illinois are cordial enough and visit each other from time to time. Certainly, their customs are very different; the former are gross and brutal, the latter mild and affable. . .³⁶

Just as Father Chardon, profiting no doubt by the efforts of his predecessors, had succeeded in bringing his savage charges through the first steps of civilization, as denoted by the fact that they were cultivating their land, the western country was thrown into a turmoil by the uprising of the Fox Indians. The English, working through the Iroquois, had nerved them to make a supreme effort to destroy French influence in the Lake country. From their home in Wisconsin they came even as far as Detroit which they besieged in 1712. Father Chardon found further labors on the St. Joseph impossible, and withdrew to Mackinac. The mission was left without a resident missionary for a period of seven or eight years.³⁷

Father Chardon continued his missionary career at Green Bay, where he remained until that mission was abandoned in 1728, "the solitary priest on the old mission ground west of Lake Michigan."³⁸ He was again at the St. Joseph Mission for a brief period in 1729. In 1733 we find him in Quebec, carried on the list of the Society as "old and infirm." He died there, April 11, 1743.³⁹

For the subsequent history of the St. Joseph Mission we are indebted to an invaluable document which has lately come to light, the baptismal register itself. It is not intact, but the patched and water-stained leaves that remain speak unmistakably of the vicissitudes through which they have passed. All the romance of an old register is there. As the entries succeed each other in these pages touched by the hands of priest and soldier, Indian and trader, they conjure up the thrilling history of the Lake region in the half-dawn before our national life.⁴⁰

(page 37)

The register as we have it begins with an entry by Father Michel Guignas, dated August 15, 1720. There are good reasons for placing the beginning of his work at the St. Joseph Mission about two years earlier. Charlevoix writes in 1721 that the Indians have been for a long time without a missionary, but that one has lately been sent them. Father Guignas came to Canada in 1716, and made his profession in the Society at the mission-house at Mackinac, February 2, 1718.⁴¹ He was probably given his charge a few months later. There are at least four or five pages missing at the beginning of the register, showing that many entries had been made before the first date mentioned above.

The first pages of the register disclose that by this time French traders had settled on the St. Joseph River. To Albert Bonne, voyageur, and Marianne Sancer-Ferron is born a son, Joseph. Pierre Pepin Laforce and Michelle Le Ber are blessed with a son, Michael, and to safeguard the interest of some far-off relative, Ange Lafontaine, "a young man from Prairie de la Magdeleine held him over the font taking the place of and acting for another godfather." The fort, abandoned in 1696, had been re-occupied about 1715, and the soldiers had evidently been permitted to bring their wives. Marguerite Faucher of the parish of Lachine presents a daughter, Magdeleine, to her husband, Claude Collet, "a soldier in the Troops of the parish of St. Albin, Diocese of Chalon sur Marne."

This obscure soldier and his humble consort were the parents of a son who achieved distinction. Charles-Ange Collet was born and baptized at the St. Joseph Mission on October 1, 1721. As a youth he received his preliminary schooling in Montreal, and in 1744 he began the study of theology at the Quebec Seminary. Ordained, September 23, 1744, he was first placed in charge of Sorel. Seven years later he became a member of the Seminary staff, where his zeal and piety soon brought him into prominence. Elected a member of the Cathedral Chapter in 1758, he was one of the three canons who witnessed the interment of Montcalm. A year later he passed over to France, and took up (page 38) his residence in Thiais, a suburb of Paris, where he was still living in 1793.⁴²

For the student of the history of Catholicism in Michigan, Charles-Ange Collet has a particular interest. He was probably the first native of Michigan to enter the priesthood. The only reason for the reservation is the presence in the Canadian priesthood of another Father Collet, who may have been the brother of Charles-Ange. In 1753, a Recollect was ordained in Quebec, whose name was Leonard-Philibert Collet, and the ordination record states that he was born, November 3, 1715. His birthplace is not given, and moreover no extant Canadian register contains the record of his baptism. There is a strong probability that the Collet family were already established on the St. Joseph at this date.⁴³ Hence, it is not beyond the bounds of probability that the friar in his grey habit, bearing in religion the name of Father Luke, was brother to Charles-Ange wearing the purple of his canonry.

After his ordination, Father Luke was destined to spend eight years as chaplain to the troops that France was moving through the West to oppose the British advance. We find him at Duquesne, Niagara, and Presqu'Ile. In 1760 he was twice in Detroit, once on January 14, and again on March 22. On both occasions he signed the baptismal register as "Chaplain of the Ohio river country." The next year he was laboring in the missions along the Mississippi in the neighborhood of Kaskaskia, and in that field he died, September 5, 1766.⁴⁴ Although his origin must remain a mystery, it is not difficult to believe that a pious family in the St. Joseph Mission may have given two sons to the Church as surely as it did one.

To the little colony on the St. Joseph, although strangely enough he says nothing of the French in it, came Father Pierre (page 39) Charlevoix in 1721. Ostensibly on a visitation of the western missions, he had really been sent by the French government to gather first-hand information regarding the prospects for colonizing the Mississippi Valley, and the feasibility of opening a path to the Vermillion or Western Sea that still haunted the imagination of the government. His previous residence in Canada, his personality, and his talents admirably fitted him for this confidential mission. The record of his travels and observations, published long after his return to France, is one of the most absorbing books of early travel in America.⁴⁵

Father Charlevoix arrived in Quebec in 1720, but he did not begin his journey until the spring of the following year. From Mackinac he had intended going to Green Bay, and from there pushing his way westward to the limits of French influence. However, the unsettled temper of the Indians made this so dangerous that he was prevailed upon to choose the St. Joseph River route to the Mississippi. To this change of plan, we owe his visit to the St. Joseph Mission.

Leaving St. Ignace, he coasted along the western shore of Michigan. When at the mouth of the Marquette River, he spent some time trying to locate the grave of Father Marquette, who had died there in 1675. A few days later he was ascending the St. Joseph River, his keen eyes noting unfamiliar trees, and his pleasure at the sight of the ever-changing panorama heightened by the perfume of the sassafras growing in profusion.

On August 8, he arrived at the post where, as he writes:

. . . we have a mission, and where there is a commandant with a small garrison. The commandant's house, which is but a very sorry one, is called the fort, from its being surrounded with an indifferent pallisado. . .

We have here two villages of Indians, one of the Miamis and the other of the Poutewatamies, both of them mostly Christians; but as they have been for a long time without any pastors, the missionary who has lately been sent them, will have no small difficulty in bringing them back to the exercise of their religion. . .⁴⁶

Father Charlevoix's stay at the mission afforded him a close-range study of the Indians assembled there. He mentions a visit (page 40) to a Miami chief who received him with an impassive hauteur, although minus his nose, which had been bitten off during a debauch. He describes the game of lacrosse, and the skill with which the Miami played it.

The Potawatomi had a famous old chief named Piremon, and another younger one called Wilamek. "This person is a Christian and well instructed, but makes no exercise of his religion. One day as I reproached him for it, he left me abruptly, went directly to the chapel, and said his prayers with so audible a voice, that we could hear him at the missionary's. . .⁴⁷

Here, as elsewhere, the ravages of the liquor traffic were evident.

Several Indians of the two nations settled upon this river, are just arrived from the English colonies, whither they had been to sell their furs, and from whence they have brought back in return a great quantity of spiritous liquor. . . every night the fields echoes with the most hideous howlings. One would have thought that a gang of devils had broke loose from hell, or that the two towns had been cutting one another's throats. . .

Your Grace may from thence judge, what a missionary is capable of doing in midst of this disorder, and how disagreeable it must be to a good man, who has in a manner exiled himself, in order to gain souls to God, to be obliged to become a witness of it, without being able to remedy it.⁴⁸

When the Indians are reproached for these disorders they answer that the French started them drinking, and that if no more liquor be forthcoming from them it can be procured from the English.

The problem thus presented was never solved by the French government. The Indian first got liquor for his furs, and later when his loyalty was necessary for the very existence of the colony, an ever-increasing supply of brandy was necessary to seal his allegiance. While in no way justifying this course, Father Charlevoix's national feeling led him to soften somewhat his condemnation of the French, on the ground that they diluted the liquor destined for the Indians, and thus made it less harmful than the brand supplied by the English. Certain it is that here on the St. Joseph, as in all the other posts, the liquor traffic meant the ruin of the missions.

(page 41)

With this cheerless picture, Father Charlevoix closes his account of the mission. His duties called him down the Mississippi and back to France; behind him he left a young missionary at his lonely post.

From now on, the Ottawa Mission begins to decline. Green Bay is soon to be abandoned, and from Mackinac as a center the few remaining missionaries are to spend their years in almost constant wanderings. It is difficult to decide whether any of the subsequent priests mentioned in the mission register ever resided there for any length of time. In the space of fifty-three years covered by the register, there are only nine entries dated during the winter months; most of the others are grouped in such a way as to indicate only an occasional visit by the missionaries.

After Father Charlevoix's departure, the history of the mission is again clouded in obscurity. Any further knowledge of it must be gleaned from the pages of the register itself. Let us take up the succession of missionaries in the order of their service.

Father Guignas must have left the St. Joseph Mission shortly after the farewell of his famous confrere, for there is a new name in the register on October 1. The brilliant record of his college days had not been forgotten by his superiors; from the wilderness of Michigan he was summoned to the chair of hydrography at the College of Quebec.⁴⁹ His five years of teaching coincided with the current agitation for finding a passage to the Western or Vermillion Sea- in other words the Pacific Ocean.

Father Charlevoix in his report had pointed out that success lay in either of two means: the exploration of the upper Missouri River, or the founding of a mission among the Sioux. The latter plan was adopted, but was not put into execution until 1727 when Boucher de Boucherville was commissioned to start a trading-post among the Sioux. When he left Montreal on June 16, 1727, he was accompanied by Father Guignas, first missionary to the Sioux, guarding carefully a case filled with his precious geodetic instruments.⁵⁰

(page 42)

About the middle of September, the expedition reached Lake Pepin, and began the building of Fort Beauharnois. The Sioux proved to be intractable, and when they appeared to espouse the cause of the Foxes, who had just escaped the punitive expedition of De Ligneris, the French sought safety in the Illinois country. Father Guignas returned to the Sioux in 1731 to spend six years in such misery as excited the pity even of the Indians. Returning to Quebec in 1738, he passed his declining years in teaching, and died, February 6, 1752.⁵¹

When Father Guignas left St. Joseph, his immediate successor became Father Jean-Baptiste de Saint Pé. It is evident that he did not remain very long at the St. Joseph Mission for he signs but one entry, dated October 1, 1721. He had been at the Ottawa Mission since his arrival in Canada in 1719, and was destined to remain at Mackinac until 1737. His name appears again in the register under two entries dated September 9, 1734.

From Mackinac Father De Saint-Pé was recalled to Quebec, where he held the office of Superior General of all the Jesuits in Canada from 1739 to 1748, and again from 1754 to 1763. He died in Quebec, July 8, 1770.⁵²

In the year one thousand seven hundred and twenty-two, I baptized in the course of the summer 4 Potawatomi children who were at the point of death. They died the same day or shortly afterwards." Thus runs the first entry of Jean Charles Guymonneau, the successor of Father De Saint-Pé. We know little concerning him beyond the fact that he was remarkable not so much for his talents as for his indefatigable zeal. He arrived in Canada in 1715, and was soon sent to the West, probably to the Illinois mission, for he was in Kaskaskia in 1721 when Father Charlevoix went through. His last entry in the St. Joseph Mission register is dated May 2, 1723. He most likely returned to the Illinois Mission, for he died there, February 6, 1736.⁵³

The next missionary on the St. Joseph River, Charles-Michel Mesaiger, extended his ministrations there over a period of (page 43) seven years. His first entry is dated September, 1724, and his last, January 26, 1731. Four of his entries occur during the winter months. These, together with the order in which the others are found, make it highly probable that he lived at the mission the greater part of the time during which it was under his care.

In the spring of 1731, Father Mesaiger was called to Mackinac to undertake a dangerous mission. La Vérendrye and his sons were soon to start out upon their historic journeys of exploration in search of the Western Sea.⁵⁴ Father De Saint-Pé, who had been designated chaplain of the expedition, found himself unable to go, and Father Mesaiger was named in his stead. The explorers pushed on through untold difficulties and hardships as far as the Lake of the Woods, where a fort was built and named St. Charles in honor of their chaplain. Broken in health, Father Mesaiger was obliged to return to Quebec, where he taught mathematics for some years. He was sent to France in 1749, and died in Rouen, August 7, 1766.⁵⁵

After Father Mesaiger's departure from the mission, there is no record of priestly ministration until 1734, when Father De Saint-Pé, as previously noted, performed two baptisms. In the following year came Jean Louis de la Pierre, a missionary of whom we have only the scantiest details. Arriving in Canada in the summer of 1734, he returned to France between 1746 and 1749, and died there some time after 1756. His first entry in the register is dated July 15, and his last, September 11, 1735.⁵⁶

Coming after a lapse of almost three years, the next entry in the register is dated June 21, 1738, and is signed by Pierre Du Jaunay. He had been in the western missions since 1735, and was destined to labor there with but slight intermission for thirty years. The register shows that he officiated at the mission at various intervals from the time of his first entry up to his last, which is dated April 22, 1752.

There is a melancholy interest attached to the name of Father Du Jaunay. Year by year he witnessed the decline of the missions. The natural inconstancy of the Indians coupled with the demoralizing influence of contact with an increasing number of (page 44) Europeans had almost undone the work of the saintly pioneers. For a time there were only two missionaries left in the entire Ottawa Mission. When Father Le Franc returned to Quebec about 1761, Father Du Jaunay remained alone, the solitary Jesuit in Michigan. A remnant of the Catholic Ottawa had established themselves at L'Arbre Croche, near the present town of Harbor Springs. Here Father Du Jaunay seems to have lived until his return to Quebec in 1765. He spent his declining years as spiritual director of the Ursulines, and died, June 16, 1780, "full of virtue and good works."⁵⁷

In 1825, Father Vincent Badin, curate of Ste. Anne's, Detroit, made a visitation of the old mission ground. The Indians of L'Arbre Croche were overjoyed to see a priest once more. An ancient of the tribe dwelt lovingly upon his memories of Father Du Jaunay, from whom he had receive his first communion. He even pointed out to Father Badin the forest path along which the missionary was wont to say his breviary.⁵⁸

For the space of twenty years Jean-Baptiste de la Morinie was a familiar figure at the St. Joseph Mission. The register shows that he often alternated with Father Du Jaunay, and that from 1752 to 1760, he was the only priest to officiate at the mission. His first record is dated April 24, 1740, and his last, April 2, 1760. He had been laboring at the Ottawa Mission since his arrival in Canada in 1738.

Some time after his last entry, Father De la Morinie is know to have gone to the Illinois mission, where he was stationed at Ste. Genevieve on the Mississippi. His confrere, Father Du Jaunay, was the last priest at the Ottawa Mission; he himself was to witness the destruction of the Illinois Mission.

In 1762 the French government decreed the secularization of the Jesuits at home and in its colonies. The Supreme Council of New Orleans put the decree into effect on July 3, 1763.

The church vestments and plate at New Orleans will be turned over to the Capuchins; the church vestments and plate of the Jesuits living in the Illinois country will be turned over to the procurator of the King in that region; the chapels will be torn down; finally, the above (page 45) so-called Jesuits shall be put on board the first vessel ready to leave for France. They are forbidden meanwhile to live in common. . .⁵⁹

We need not go into the distressing details by which this decree was carried out to the letter.⁶⁰ The Jesuits were deported in the spring of 1764. Old Father Meurin was allowed to remain, provided he took up his residence in Ste. Genevieve on the Spanish side of the river. Father De la Morinie was permitted to come back through Canada, and he soon rejoined his brethren in France. The date of his death is unknown.⁶¹

There come next in the register three entries written in the tiny, characteristic hand of Father Pierre Potier. They are dated January 8, 25, and June 12, 1761. By a strange coincidence these entries, the last to be signed by a Jesuit, are by the hand of the sole surviving member of the Society in the entire West.

From 1728, there had been a Jesuit mission in Detroit for the Huron whom Cadillac had enticed thither from Mackinac. Begun at first near the fort, and later moved to Bois Blanc Island, the mission was finally located on the spot now occupied by the buildings of the Assumption Parish in Sandwich, Ontario. Father Potier took charge of the mission in 1744, and when the growing number of colonies made a change of status imperative, the mission became a parish, and Father Potier its first pastor in 1768.

From his extant writings, we know Father Potier to have been a painstaking and laborious scholar. He had, moreover, an eager curiosity regarding the western country which lad him to travel widely. So methodical an observer could never go on a journey without logging his progress, and to this fact we are indebted for several interesting records of his excursions to distant points. One of them indicates the trail followed by Father Potier from Detroit to Fort St. Joseph, jotted down, perhaps, on the very occasion of his replacing Father De la Moronie at the mission.⁶²
