Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Manual of the Society of St. Vincent De Paul: Translated From the French
This collection will thus place before the eyes of our associates, a picture of the daily occupations and life of our Conferences, recall many useful precedents and decisions, founded on past expe rience, which might otherwise be buried in the passing years. It will likewise prevent discus sions, in our meetings, which might otherwise usurp the time dedicated to the practice of charity, and show any persons, that may interest them selves in our affairs, what we have l)een, what we now are and desire ever to remain. We trust this short treatise may truly deserve the title of Manual, and prove a useful and frequent pocket companion, either for the purposes of piety, or for the study of our principles and our spirit.
