Advocacy

Canadian Press Staff Writer
MONTREAL (CP)—One day in! 1663, the governor of New France, | accompanied by soldiers with shoot-to-kill Orders, bust into a humble house in Quebec's upper-| town and demanded to see the occupants.
A few seconds later, a man wearing a dusty cassock and fin- gering a mustache of the type then in vogue appeared in a, door- way to a room where the furnish- ings consisted solely of a bed, a table and a chair.
With bayonets at the ready, the soldiers advanced ‘menancingly towards the man. Then to the, astonishment of the ; governor | they snapped to attention andj respectfully saluted the 40-year- |
advanced towards them.
GOVERNOR DISAPPOINTED
Sadly disappointed, the gov- ernor returned to the Chateau St. Louis, the soldiers returned to their barracks and the man they liad been ordered to shoot re- turned to his daily tasks.
The man was Monsignor Fran- cois de Montmorency Laval, the first Roman Catholic Bishop of Quebec, whose beatification is ex- pected to be recommended today at a Vatican ceremony. The gov- ernor who ordered the shooting was Charles-Augustin de Saffray de Mesy, angered by the bishop's refusal to sanction the appoint- ment, of some of the governor's friends to coveted administrative posts.
The incident was only one of many difficult moments experi- enced by Msgr. Laval in founding the Catholic hierarchy in Canada and administering a diocese that stretched from Quebec, to the Gulf of Mexico.
elevated te, the ranks of the blessed in the Roman Catholic Church is expected to be made by a consistorial advocate during a public consistory in St. Peter’s Basilica. At the consistory the Pope will confer the red hat on newly-appointed cardinals.
