In September 1766, a royal proclamation addressed to all seigneurs, with regard to the Acadian refugees, recommended the following*:

care should be given the Acadians

allow them to settle on lands not yet in use in their seigneuries

allow them the best possible conditions

give them necessary provisions for the period of one month. *

Gazette de Québec, 15 Sept. 1766, Canadian Archives 1905 Vol. II, p. 157
