Old Catechism in Okana gan and Shushwap Teachers Work
The March 1903 issue reports on the Okanagan and Shushwap catechisms arranged by Bishop DHerbomes and missionaries at New Westminster about thirty years earlier. It notes translations into several languages, ongoing Shushwap Church construction, and new Kamloops altar. It records deaths of Brother Felix Guillet and Chief Leo of Halowt, plus obituaries for Sophy McLean. It also mentions a milder winter, heavy snow, and expected spring high water, with a minor typographical correction regarding Lillooet.
