Abstract
"Gradually an acquaintance with the rudiments of Christianity seized their minds, and an acceptance of certain Catholic practices, such as setting Sunday aside as a day of special devotion, marked their customs. And by 1824-5, during the visit of the Governor-in-Chief of the Hudson's Bay Company (which in 1821 had absorbed the North West Company), the Indian from the Lower Columbia about Fort George to the forks of the Thompson River, at Fort Kamloops, were clamoring for missionaries, to lead them to a knowledge of the true God."
