It was founded by president Lasuen, Serra's successor, in 1798. \ Here for many years lived the Sainted Father Peyri, who was so beloved by the Indians, that when he retired to Spain, the Indians swam out to the vessel to \ beg him with tears to return. The venerable and well known Father O'Keefe recently partially restored Saint Luis Rey, and now resides there.
