But at present, in the summer of 1657, there was nothing but anticipation of the arrival of the governor and the four Sulpicians who were to be the parish clergy, with a permanent abode and a settled ecclesiastical status. The Jesuits who had so long served the mission were to be free to go to the up-country Indians--their long connection with the settlement was to be severed. NOTE THE JESUIT MISSIONARIES AT MONTREAL (From 1642 to August 12, 1657, when the Sulpicians succeeded them.) The first mayor of Montreal, Commander Jacques Viger, has collected in a little manuscript book preserved in the Archives of St. Marie's College at Montreal the list of Jesuits serving Montreal from 1642-1657 as follows: Joseph Poncet, 1642-4; Joseph Imbert Duperon, 1642-3; Ambroise Daoust, 1643; Gabriel Druillettes, 1643-5; Isaac Jogues, 1645; Jacques Buteaux, 1645; Paul Le Jeune, 1645-6; Adrien Daran, 1646; Georges d'Eudemare, 1647-8; Jean de Quen, 1648-50; Pierre Bailloquet, 1648; Charles Albanel, 1650; André Richard, 1650; Siméon Le Moyne, 1650; Claude Pijart, 1650 to August 12, 1657. Fifteen Jesuits resident in fifteen years. This does not account for names of other distinguished missionaries visiting, whose names appear on the registers as having officiated at Ville Marie baptisms, marriages, deaths and other documents during this early period. Mr. E. Z. Massicotte in his "Les Colons de Montreal de 1642-1667," gives some of these as follows: 1649--Jérome Lalemant, June 1st to 11th, May 19th to 24th. 1650--Paul Ragueneau, two days. 1655--Claude Dablon passed through Montreal in October, also on the 30th of March, 1666. He would also have signed 3-5-'62 a document concerning Hudson Bay. 1656--Joseph Marie Chaumont, October, the bearer of a message for the Iroquois in 1661, was at Montreal in 1662, resided at Montreal in 1663. 1656--Léonard Gareau, wounded in a combat on August 30th, buried September 2d. 1657--François? le Mercier, July 24th. Of the Montreal Jesuits, there are some who merit special mention here. JOSEPH ANTOINE PONCET DE LA RIVIERE
