LXXXVI. The Relation of 1653 54 is written by Fran�ois le Mercier, except the last chapter, which is an epitome of information on Canadian matters received by the Paris editor from other sources. The superior writes an introductory note to the provin cial, which mentions the success of Father Le Moyne's recent journey to the Iroquois country, and the consequent opening for a mission there. For this purpose, Le Mercier asks that six more Fathers be sent to Canada; and that more funds be contributed by the charitable, that this additional expense may be met.
