Rosati, C.M., Bishop Joseph, Saint Louis, Missouri, to Father John Timon, C.M., Barrens, Missouri, 1831 March 4

Identifier: CVIN IV-3-i

Scope and Contents

Timon's words regarding their seminarians have given Rosati great pleasure. He is delighted that the Sisters of Loretto can go to the home of Joseph Schnurbusch Snowbush. He agrees perfectly with Timon's judgement. The aim of an institute of Sisters devoted to the teaching of persons of their sex would fail, should it admit that promiscuity of girls and boys which is deplored in the schools of this country. Rosati is surprised that Timon, overburdened as he is, has sent Father John Paquin, C.M. to New Orleans since Father John Boullier, C.M. is making the same trip at the same time. The latter could have carried out the same commissions. Timon should have received a long letter with the report of the miracle at Georgetown District of Columbia. On the address side of the letter: Favor of Mr. Reath. Also writing in pencil which is almost illegible. :: IV-3-i A.L.S. French 2pp. folio
