1675. See Olivier Maurault, "M. Etienne-Michel Faillon (1800-1870)," Les Cahiers des dix, 24
(1959), p. 157.
55 Almost all documents cited by Faillon are taken from vol. 256 of the SOCG series. The volume
has "America e Canada" on its spine, and the number "3" in the frontispiece. Other documents
cited come from Acta, vol. 27, dealing with the year 1658 (Faillon, Histoire, II, pp. 322, 327-
328), and from Congressi, America Settentrionale, wrongly cited as "Scritture riferite nei
Congregazione" (id., III, p. 170).
56 Vol. 256 of SOCG, for example, is normally cited as "vol. America. 3. Canada. 256," but also
as "Vol. America. 3. Canada," "156," "255" and "356" (id., II, p. 376; III, pp. 186, 356, 371).
57 See Maurault, "Faillon," pp. 152, 157. See also the documents of Propaganda published by Morin
relating to Faillon's Roman years, Morin, ed., "Eclaircissements inedits de Faillon sur son
Histoire de la colonie franqaise," Revue d'histoire de ['Amerique franqaise, V, 4 (March 1952),
pp. 585-588.

60 Shea, Catholic Church, p. iv. According to Edward 1. Devitt, the copies are now in the archives
of Georgetown University, in Washington: "Dr. Shea's MSS. in Georgetown University contain
a voluminous collection entitled 'Propaganda Transcripts,' which include nearly all of these
documents, many of which were translated and published in full by him" (Edward 1. Devitt, ed.,
"Propaganda Documents. Appointment of the First Bishop of Baltimore," Records of the American
Catholic Historical Society of Philadelphia, XXI, 4 [December 1910], p. 186). This writer has
not personally checked that collection.
