Going thru my piles of stuff, I have just come across about 50 musty pages photocopied many many years ago, entitled Historical Sketch of the Parish of St. Anne and Its Noted Shrine, by Rev. Z.P. Berand, Pastor, 1923. It covers mainly the post-Chiniquy period, and includes the Academy before and after the fire. The interesting text is legible, but the many pictures are not of good quality (the photocopying must be of pre-Xerox vintage). There are several pages of ads, including Beaupre's Garage (Dodge and Hupmobile) and not one but two hotels. I wonder if anyone else has a copy of this book. If not, I might type up the text and make it available in .doc format if anyone wants. Eventually. ---bob s. in monterey
