Event: Burial Event Date: 10/25/1737 Event Place: San Ignacio
Notes: At eight o'clock in the morning of October 25, [1737], Padre Joseph Javier of Colonia Agripina, died. He had come to the Pimería Alta a few months before, being assigned to the Mission at Dolores. Then, seeing that there was not a need for him there, he was sent to San Xavier del Bac. He died at the age of 31 years, having kept all his pledges. He received the Holy Sacraments of Penance, Viaticum, and Extreme Unction, speaking clearly until the end. He was buried in the Sanctuary of this church by me, on the Gospel side of the main altar. = Gaspar Stiger, Minister for His Majesty
