The text of this document, however, we have compared with the original
folio edition of Jouvency's work, in the library of St. Francis Xavier
College, New York, and the pagination thereof is indicated instead of
that of the O'Callaghan Reprint. The list, "Missiones Societatis Jesu
in America Septentrionali Anno M. DCC. X.," which O'Callaghan reprints
as if a part of the original _Canadicæ Missionis_, is on pp. 961, 962
of the same volume of Jouvency in which the latter appears (part v.).
_Title-page._ The O'Callaghan Reprint is closely imitated.
_Collation of O'Callaghan Reprint._ Title, 1 p.; reverse of title,
with inscription: "Editio viginti quinque exemplaria. O'C.," 1 p.;
Biardi Eulogium ac Vita, pp. i-v.; blank, 1 p.; Tabula, 1 p.; blank,
1 p.; text, pp. 5-33; colophon: "Albaniae Excvdebat Joel Munsellius
| Mense Aprilis Anno | CI[C=]. I[C=]CCC. LXXI.," 1 p.; half-title,
"Appendix," 1 p.; blank, 1 p.; "Missiones Societatis Iesu | in America
Septentrionali |Anno M.DCC.X.," 2 pp., the last of which is numbered 38.
VIII
We follow the style and make-up of O'Callaghan's Reprint (Albany,
1871), which is numbered 5 in the Lenox Catalogue. The text and
pagination follow the original, in Jouvency's _Hist. Soc. Jesu_, part
v., commencing p. 344.
_Title-page._ The O'Callaghan Reprint is closely imitated.
_Collation of O'Callaghan Reprint._ Title, 1 p.; reverse of title,
with inscription: "Editio viginti quinque exemplaria. O'C.," 1 p.;
Tabula Rerum, 1 p.; blank, 1 p.; text, pp. 5-49; blank, 1 p.; Rerum
Insigniorum Indiculus, 4 pp.; colophon: "Albaniae Excvdebat Joel
Munsellius | Mense Qvintilis Anno | CI[C=]. I[C=]CCC. LXXI.," 1 p.
FOOTNOTES:
[XVII.] In order to save needless repetition of long titles,
bibliographical works, when once cited in full, will thereafter be
referred to by the usual cut-shorts: e.g., the John Carter Brown
Catalogue will be hereafter known in our Bibliographical Data as
"Brown Catalogue;" the list of Jesuitica in Winsor's _Narrative and
Critical History_ vol. iv., as "Winsor;" the Lenox _Catalogue of
Jesuit Relations_, as "Lenox Catalogue;" Harrisse's _Notes sur la
Nouvelle France_, as "Harrisse's _Notes_," or simply as "Harrisse;"
etc., etc. The student who is familiar, in a general way, with these
bibliographical sources,--and it is presumed that those are, for whom
this series of reprints is designed,--will not be confused by the
customary method of brief citation.
