If anyone is interested in a coffee break challenge:
the early missionaries in British Columbia used familiar French songs, such as the Lourdes hymn and Venez Divin Messie, as the musical settings for the Chinook Jargon hymns that they composed. Would anyone be able to identify the music in the attached hymns? (And, yes, Caelitum Joseph is listed as the Air. for the first hymn but I can't source the music since it's different than the chant.)
