27 We catch glimpses of this mission in the pages of Charle- voix's history, but these parish registers here are the best evi- dence of the labors and success of these devoted men. But in 1762 Choiseul drove the French Jesuits from their colleges, and surrendered the possessions of France in America to England, and without the magnificent power and energy of the Society of Jesus behind it, the mission at Michilimackinac languished, and although not abandoned, the faithful in its flock were obli...ged to depend on visits, more or less frequent, from various missionary priests. Between 1 762, when Dujaunay left Arbe Croche (now^ Har- bor Springs) and Michilimackinac, and 1799? when Richard visited the mission, Gibault, Payet, Ledru, Levadoux, all names illustrious among the post-Jesuit missionaries to the In- dians, had, as these registers attest, been here at intervals, and when they came, there thronged here to meet them the Christian men and women, French and Indian, of the settle- ment, often to be married or to have their children baptized, more often for the supplemental ceremonies, and the blessing of the Church, on lay baptisms already administered or mar- riages already contracted before some civil magistrate.
