 Item
Identifier: CMNT II-3-n

Scope and Contents

DuBourg has just learned that the Archbishop John Carroll is detained at Emmitsburgh and will not be back in Baltimore before next week. DuBorg must leave within two days and has not received the letters the Archbishop promised and which he expected that day. He is sending an express to ask for them, so that the Archbishop can sign them the next morning. He has asked the Archbishop to tell his plans for DuBourg and the efforts that have been delayed by the imprisonment of the Holy Father. This DuBourg regards as important so that New Orleans will be impressed. The Archbishop understands this and he repeats it for Bruté's benefit. Carroll has promised one letter to Father Jean Oliver and one to Governor William C.C. Claiborne and the third to the Superioress of the Ursulines. :: II-3-n A.L.S. French 3pp. 4to., 5
