At Toronto (where the Auxiliary now assumed the title of the Upper Canada Bible Society) a spirit of inquiry had been awakened. Among the French Catholics round Ottawa experience proved that there was a possibility of distributing the Scriptures, while, at Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, Mr Thomson was well received by the aged Abbe Sigogne, who ordered some Bibles and a hundred of De Sacy's New Testament, and at Antigonish the Catholic Bishop readily consented to one of his flock acting as depositary f...or the sale of the Word of God. In 1844 there were great and small two hundred and forty-six Bible Societies and Associa- tions in British North America, and effective work was being done among the immigrants, the Red Tribes of the Forest, and the older French and English inhabitants. Some had adopted the plan of house to house visitation, others had engaged colporteurs or a special agent to travel among the French part of the population. At the close of the half century the Toronto Auxiliary, with its 115 Branches, had circulated altogether 187, 019 copies, and its total receipts had amounted to, 20, 950.
