To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There are, perhaps, amongst those whom I address, a few who have occasionally resided far from the habitation of a priest, remote from a church, and feeling deeply the absence of religious aid. There are others who have never known this desolation, save by description; let both look around through the vast territory comprised in this diocess, and see how few are the priests who are scat- tered thinly through it: how few the stations they can attend to, and how many of their brethren are thus ne...cessarily bereft of all spiritual aid I Suppose the seminary in full operation, and that it gave to us an abundant supply of priests— how are they to be sent to those, our aban- doned brethren! I need not inform you that ours are not the wealthy of the land. It is generally their necessity and their industry that ban- ish our members to such a distance from their priests and their churches, and however they may long for the services of religion, and I may desire to afford them, still, there is an unavoidable expense to be encountered in the support of a missionary, and in defraying the cost of his jour- ney : and, in several instances, neither the means of those who are thus bereft, nor those at my disposal, are sufficient for this purpose ; and the second great object of this society, is to aid in sustaining missions of this description.
