AM entitled "Observationes in praesentem Statum Religionis Catholicae in Provinciam Canadiensi." In existence for more than 150 years, the Sulpician Seminary [of Montréal] is rich in revenues, but spends its money on pious activities (30,000 Roman scudi a year), and the priests live poorly. In order to take advantage of its revenues, the British government tries to suppress the Seminary by preventing French Sulpicians to join their Canadian confrères. Although the abp. of Québec, Plessis, is a worthy man, he usually shares the views of the government ["multùm nimis accedere infaustissimis Regiminis Anglicani Consiliis"]; he also imposed upon the newly-elected bp. of Telmissus, Lartigue, to reside in the Montréal Seminary, although his presence would be more useful in one of the churches located on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River.

PF should order Lartigue to protect the Seminary and to make the church of [Notre-Dame-de-]Bon-Secours his parish and cathedral church. Roux is mentioned. PF notes.
