    Father Baroux whose correspondence is translated above was born at St. Michel, France, March 25, 1817. August 13th, 1845, he became a novice at Notre Dame and made his profession in the Holy Cross order, March 17th, 1848. He died September 14th, 1897.

    By proximity Notre Dame put him in touch with the Indian missions at Bertrand, Pokagon, and Silver Creek. He organized the Indian mission at Rush Lake and Saugatuck and procured money from the Society of the Propagation of the Faith for the Churches in these two places.
