	:Before their departure Colin’s main concern had been the spiritual preparation of the missionaries. As to the practicalities, he had good reasons not to get involved. But the same Pompallier had also made it very clear, if only by appointing Colin his pro-vicar in France, that he wanted Colin to take an active role from then on, in supporting him and his missionaries. When, in late March or early April 1837, Colin got the letter from Santa Cruz, he took up contact with the Propagation of the Faith and obtained an advance of 8.700 francs. By then there was little he could do than send it to Valparaiso. When he got the mail from Valparaiso he sent a ~~first~~ parcel of mail. It was ~~not much, but what more~~ could ~~have been done?~~		:Before their departure Colin’s main concern had been the spiritual preparation of the missionaries.

	:The letters sent from Santa Cruz, Valparaiso, Tahiti and Sydney together make up an impressive testimony of how faithfully the missionaries responded to Colin’s request to write to him frequently and to let him know everything. The ~~total~~ absence of ~~any~~ letters in the other direction is sad. It was not Colin alone. Nobody thought of translating the early enthusiasm for the missions into writing a simple letter. They could have been sent on good luck via any of the different ways that had been suggested. Colin’s recommendation to have all letters pass through his hands, possibly had the unintended effect that nobody else took an initiative.		:The letters sent from Santa Cruz, Valparaiso, Tahiti and Sydney together make up an impressive testimony of how faithfully the missionaries responded to Colin’s request to write to him frequently and to let him know everything.
