Badin's recent letter of October 16, judging from the date of Mr. Watson has satisfied him completely. Viszoczky thanks him for ordering him to remain at his post since the order of his superiors is his chief sustenance. It is true that he applied his fist to Louis Campau, but he had calumniated his worse since the fight than before. He quotes Campau's letter of October 11 in which Campau expressed his resentment over the way Viszoczky has treated him. Mr. Graverate told him, he said, that the letter Viczoczky read him was a different letter and that he is persuaded that Viszoczky is capable of so doing and of other things. He believes him a villain unworthy of the name of a priest, and is convinced that if he exposed to the law what Viszoczky did the day before he would be treated as he deserves, Campau further accuses Viszoczky of insulting him and his whole family. Viszoczky says that if he has failed in anything since he has been attacked by Campau again with Mauran and Gravorate and at his home again it is not keeping a stick at hand since he has a sore arm for nearly three days. He believes he will die here sooner or later but he will die willingly for Christ. Meanwhile he asks Badin to prevent a cruel death and inform him in time what measures to take in the springtime regarding the property. He asks him to let him know as soon as possible the arrival of Bishop Frederick Rese. :: III-2-g A.L.S. French 2pp. 4to.
