He did not in my ab sence forget the esteem with which God had inspired him for his faith, but persevered constantly in his good practices, and having fallen from the top of a tree to the ground, crushing his whole body, he suffered his pains for thirty days that he survived his fall with great patience as the Christians assured me. He made them frequently come together to pray to God for him, especially as death approached, and he ordered that after his death a cross should be set up on his gr...ave to show that he wished to die a Christian, and that he did not recognize as true kindred any but those who became Christians like him. It was the custom of these poor orphaned Chris tians to assemble and pray in this way for each other, especially in sickness and the various accidents that befell them. Even those who were not Christians imitated them, and made little banquets to bring them together and have their children baptized, and find 12 through their prayers, some remedy either for hody or mind ; others sometimes expressed to me how much they had grieved for my ab sence, having no one with whom they could really console them selves, or who could heal their consciences, and who often found themselves shocked amid a perverse nation and in a strange dis turbance of mind, when the enemies of the faith and of the French excited all to war.
