J. Keeney, a pioneer of Cass county and the first school teacher of Fargo, wrote thus of Father Genin's work in Dakota : "The first church service I attended in North Dakota was at the Holy Cross mission. I was looking for the signs of a possible railroad survey early iu the summer of 1872 and when near the mouth of the Wild Rire river, looming up before us was a large cross. I was not much given to church thoughts in those days, but I stood still and took off my hat to that cross. Going down i...nto the bend of the river T saw Father Genin making hay with some Indians and half-breed assistants. He was in priestly garb, but was doing good work with the fork. Father Genin saw us when we were yet far off, and came to meet us. We spent a most delightful day with him and were amazed with the amount of work this lone priest was doing in the wilderness. He had under his charge all the Indians and half-breeds from Grand Forks to the head of Big Stone lake. They were entirely under his influ- ence and were governed by his advice, which was always for good, and during those earlier years I never knew one of his people to commit a theft or in any way molest the settlers.
