Excerpt from Miscellany: Historical Sketch of the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer, Rules and Constitutions of the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer, Instructions About the Religious State, Lives of Two Fathers and of a Lay Brother C. Ss. R. Discourses on Calamities

This volume is called Miscellany, containing various little works which, with the exception of the Letters to be published subsequently in five volumes, complete the collection of the ascetical works. Before giving these little works, we have thought it well to add brie¿y an historical sketch of the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer as it now exists. This volume com prises all that which in the writings of St. Alphonsus has ref erence to the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer which he founded, regarded principally as a religious Institute. It will be particularly useful to those in the world who feel themselves called to the religious state, and who are desirous to become fully acquainted with the Institute for the purpose of examining their vocation.
