Timon's favor of April 2 was handed to Brassac by their friend J. Vigor Boutelou de St. Aubin. He offers his thanks for Timon's token; no sensible object is necessary to call Timon to his mind. He is much obliged for Timon's discharge of his commissions. the hostilities commenced about a year ago by the trustees of St. Michael, Louisiana against the convent Religious of the Sacred Heart or rather against Father Louis Boue? were carried to a scandalous extent about 3 weeks ago by their pulling down the enclosure and destroying plants and trees of their garden. There were about 50 or 60 persons, black and white. The leaders did not appear but their guilt is well known. The persons used as instruments disclaimed any intention to disturb the Ladies but pointed to B. as the sole object of their resentment. fortunately the gentleman was absent. A new election took place but not without bloody noses and black eyes. The well intentioned prevailed but the removal of the present incumbent would be hailed with joy even by his friends. Bishop Anthony Blanc left for France on April 30 in company with Father Constantine Maenhaut. Blanc refused to accept Brassac's resignation so Brassac must wait a little longer. The weather is magnificent, the crops promise well. :: IV-3-j A.L.S. 3PP. 4TO.
