Dupuy has just received Timon's favor of March 28; he is glad to see that all are well at the college. It may be that Dupuy will have a chance to draw that money on Bishop Joseph Rosati but Timon will give it to John B. Desruisseaux who is going to Timon's college and who will stay there no more than 6 months. A few weeks ago, Dupuy sent Peter Bogy and his cousin Charles Bogy. Lately he directed to Timon John and his brother Ignatius Desruisseaux. Dupuy entreats Timon's kindness as well as that of Father Joseph Paquin, C.M. not to let these young men have any dissatisfaction from the children. Dupuy received a letter from Father Philip Borgna, C.M. which shows that they are misinformed about Dupuy's mission and the place where he lives. A few days ago Dupuy arrived from a ride of 277 miles above the Arkansas River where he had been called to marry a couple of which the bridegroom was an officer of the garrison. It is about 18 miles above the boundary line in Choctaw Nation. He traveled not far from the land belonging to Rosati. Dupuy thinks it would be a proper place for a college. Dupuy's little congregation is increasing slowly. He is sorry to understand by Timon's letter that they doubt a female school could be established. In Dupuy's judgment, only the beginning would be hard. Constant and hard work is his living, some little help from Louisiana excepted. Should he keep a good school, he could get enough to live on., P.S. He recalls with pleasure the name of Mr. Changy; he sends his regards. :: IV-3-j A.L.S. 4pp. 4to.
