Not only the enslaved Hurons and some French prisoners are included therein, but some of the Iroquois them selves are zealous Christians.

He has kept up the chapel erected in his village by the jesuits, and built a French house for the mission aries whom he expects He has ransomed many French prisoners, and has risked his life in this work of charity. Among the Frenchmen still detained at Onondaga is one, the Oldest of all, who is a sort of pastor for all the Christians there. The Indian women bring their infants to him for baptism; and he rebukes any dereliction from duty on the part of the Frenchmen. The Huron captives hold secret meetings, and recite all the prayers they know. A letter of Allouez details the conversion and pious death of a Seneca Indian at Montreal.
