He is pleased to inform Lefevere that the acquisition of the house has been made, and the act of promissory notes, also, has been accomplished. The price is 13 thousand francs. The final document to be drawn up is at the latest the 14th of next August, up to that date the money will not bear interest. If by that date, Lefevere has not the money, he has until the first of January, 1858 but the money will run 4 1/8 per cent from August 14 until January 1. He will enter into possession right away of vacant buildings until next June 4; occupied houses are to be emptied at the expense of the owner and then he will have full possession. Already today the tiles are on the roofs, carpenters and plasterers within. On appointment at Louvain at Kindekens' earliest convenience, and in a month, at the latest, he will be able to enter with his 4 priests. The buildings which he has visited are adequate for 80 persons at least until they will be restored and arranged suitably. These jobs can be supplied as they are wanted, Kindekens has then an acquisition of gold, and a chance truly providential; 60 thousand francs would not suffice to raise all to a state where one would feel at home. On the next trip, it will be necessary to consider the small furniture; he has already ordered chairs, tables, beds, etc. the remainder when Kindekens comes. This establishment is an old college of St. d'Aulne. He has been truly surprised to discover so much solidity in the buildings and to come upon so much space. :: III-2-i A.L.S. French 3pp. 12mo.
