The nuns here Sisters of Loretto are indebted and unable to pay if Timon does not assist them. Timon mentioned that they expected to receive some money from New Orleans of the legacy of Father Benedict Richard. In case they have, Timon is not to forget the Sisters of St. Michael's. On his return from St. Louis he found a letter from Father Tornatore requesting whether Cellini would receive the young clergyman Father John Kenny? Kenny to teach school. There is not the least arrangement here for school; Cellini does not think it proper to let him come. Another one, lately arrived, almost withdrew all the scholars of the convent. At present Cellini is alone. Father Louis Tucker has been appointed parish priest of Mine Breton. Cellini hopes Timon will not forget to come often to see him. Cellini is too old to go far for Confession and is quite broken. :: IV-3-j A.L.S. 2pp. folio
