Flaget encloses this letter in a letter very important for Bishop William DuBourg which he asks Bruté to expedite but carefully since he does not send a duplicate. If his seminary of Saint Thomas would be taken over by the Sulpicians he would lack nothing for his happiness there. Tomorrow on the feast of the Assumption he will bless the chapel dedicated to St. Thomas with deacon and subdeacon. Father Guy Ignatius Chabrat will be assistant priest and Father Jean David will direct the choir. It is marvelous to see the Protestants of Bardstown give all kinds of ornaments for the cathedral of which the foundations are already in the ground. Bruté must not forget the plans of Maximilian Godefroy and send them in the care of Madame St. Martin. He writes no more because of a lack of time. :: II-3-n A.L.S. French 2pp. 8vo., 3
