During the epidemic of yellow See also:fever in 1798 he won See also:great praise and respect for his courage and charity; and his See also:preaching was listened to by many Protestants—indeed the subscriptions for the See also:- CHURCH

On the See also:death of the See also:Letter his assistant bishop, See also:Neale, urged the See also:appointment of Cheverus as assistant to himself; Cheverus refused and warmly. asst rted his See also:desire to remain in Boston; but, much broken by thedeath. of Matignon in 1818 and with impaired See also:health, he soon found it necessary to leave the seat of his bishopric. In 1823, Louis XVIII. having insisted on his return to France, Cheverus became bishop of See also:Montauban, where his tolerance captivated the See also:Protestant See also:clergy and laymen of the See also:city. He was made See also:arch-bishop of See also:Bordeaux in 1826; and on the 1st of See also:February 1836, in accordance with the wish of Louis Philippe, he was made a See also:cardinal.
