Identifier: CDET III-2-f

Scope and Contents

She sends him a copy of a letter which she has transcribed as well as she could. She wrote by the last boat but does not know whether Richard received. On the same page is the following. In her own hand. La Papois, one of the Chiefs, L'Arbre Croache, Michigan Territory, to Father Gabriel Richard, Detroit, Michigan Territory. All the Indians whom Richard visited last year salute him. At present they have fear of those who go among them and pretend to be priests seeking to take Richard's place among them. They do not intend to chance however, but would like to see Richard as soon as possible. When he meets him, he will open his heart on these matters. :: III-2-f A.L.S. French 1p. 8vo., 3
