Description
French edition. Story of how "in the beginning" Aboriginal people lived together under one big lodge or outside but that they later started to build cabins with tree trunks, branches, straw and earthen plaster. Two of these identical buildings [for the missionary?] were called Reunion Houses, Catechism Houses, or the Priest's House and were later replaced by wooden structures. Describes how these "primitive" houses are slowly becoming buildings of good taste, according to architectural regulations. Describes how the altars have improved.
