Gibson, William, Bolivia Post Office, Illinois, to Father John Timon, C.M., Barrens, Missouri, 1834 April 18

 Item
Identifier: CVIN IV-3-i

Scope and Contents

Gibson on the 10th received a letter from Father Francis Xavier Dahmen, in which he gave an extract of Father Jean Baptiste Tornatore's letter, stating that the Superior could not accept Gibson's conditions, but requesting Gibson to keep the land and when paid for, he would probably purchase. Gibson must have Sidney Breeze's bond which he let Timon have. Should the Superior make the purchase it must be done before payment is made to Breeze as Gibson will dispose of it to raise funds to pay the debt. Should the superior still have doubts about the honesty and fairness of the transaction, gibson does not require a cent until the Superior gets a warranty deed for the bond., P.S. Timon is to try to pay them a visit. Mrs. Gibson intends visiting Timon's place May 29. :: IV-3-i A.L.S. 3pp. 4to.
