heads. lie was proud of being a Frenchman,
aud hoped France would soon initiate the coun
try which she done so much to lberate during

OF his love by the bitterness of his lamentations.
However, ne was none the less sensible to the
Sympathles of the churches of other faiths in
the stand he had taken. He did not think
that churches separated from the Catholicco

Whatever may divide us now, we will be unit

by saying that he looked forward to one God
one faith, one baptism, and one shepherd. and
signed himself Brother Hyacinthe.
