Loisel, Father Regis, St. Louis, Missouri, to Father John Timon, C.M., Barrens, Missouri, 1828 August 26
Scope and Contents
Loisel is lately returned from his little mission to Edward's Ville. The Catholics were extremely pleased to see a priest; the Protestants showed much kindness to him. He visited Mrs. and Miss Vignes?; the latter continues a Catholic, but is in danger of losing her faith through the endeavors of Protestant ministers. The great desire of the Catholics of that place to have a priest, and the good disposition of most Protestants, make him feel the necessity of going there more frequently. He will visit them once in two months. Timon will receive of the bearer, Mr. Martin, Sr. the two dollars Mr Hambaugh got for the two books. He could sell many more if the price were lower, 75 cents, for instance. If Father John Mary Odin, C.M. could make them available at that rate it would be a means of doing much good among those people. :: IV-3-i A.L.S. 3pp. 4to.
