The men mentioned in the bishop’s de- cree signed the peiuon as “members of the executive committee of the French-American Roman Catholic Church of Maine.” They are Godfrey S. Dupre, attorney at law; Dr. George Procourt ana Dr. A. C. Maynard,prom- inent physiclans; Albert J. Deland and Alfred Bonneau, editor and 'publisher of a French-American weekly newspa- per, all of Biddeford, and John B. Cou- ture of Lewiston.
