Joseph Guiburd, Printer.

Few men in the worlds long history
have ever achieved wide posthunous
fame without striving for il while they
lived as has fallen to the lot Of Joseph
Guioord, he whose burial has engaged
the attention of Queen Victoria's priyy
council, has drawn forth an anathema
from bishop, has converted cemetery
into a garrison, and is theme Of end
less discussion in ecclesiastical and Sec
ular circles. The man whose remains
have raised such coil was Joseph Gui-
bord, printer, Of Montreal. who died in
November, 1869. aged sixty-two years.
For thirty-six consecutive years Gui-
bord was in the employ Of Louis Per-
rault & Sons, and for tsenty years Of
this long period be filed the place Of
foreman. He was printer Of more
than ordinary intelligence and ingenu-
ity. When the catechism and hymns
for the use of the Indians in the north
western regions Of Canada were pre-
pared for the press, Guibord was con-
suited as to the best methods for put
ting the Indian dialects into type and
Of making the novel matrices. AL
though not conversant with the original
tongues, Guibord undertook the labor
Of putting the-to him-meanipgless
writing into type; and SO we'll did he
succeed in the difficult undertaking that
for years he furnished the Roman Cath
olic missions in Northwestern Canada
with all the catechisms and hymn books
needed for the Indians. Mr.. Guibord
likewise supervised all the printing for
the palace Of the bishop Of Montreal.
and for twenty years he personally SUI
perintended the composition and print
ing Of the bishops pastoral letters
Guibord's post-mortem troubles arose
from his refusal, at the first request OF
his bishop. to withdraw from a literary
association, the 7. Institute -Canadien. "
which had in its library certain books
reading of which was forbidden to Cath
olics By authority Of the Pope. Gui-
bord appealed to Rome; before an an
swer came he died, and bis remains
were refused interment in the Roman
Catholic cemetery at Montreal. De-
ceased had premonition Of the troubles
his corpse was to cause. A short time
previous to his demise. in conversation
with friend on bis appeal to Rome. he
said. II feel that am going fast, and
If this matter is not settled before die
there will be a row (tapoge) about my
grave" All the civilized world is
watching the row with interest, very
few knowing who or what Joseph Gui-
bord was.-Prsnter's Circular.
