In compliance with Bruté's request they tell Bruté that he will find the debate over Father James Wallace in the National Intelligencer. He lists them and expresses regret that there was no answer by Baxter. Baxter's letter appeared on the very day there was an assembly of Protestants in Alexandra under Bishop Moore, Grassi thinks they should answer everything that appears against them. He asked what happened to Mr. Cooper who left Georgetown for Philadelphia to get money to sail to Gibraltar. They have heard nothing from him. He would like to know if there is a chip which intends to sail from Baltimore to Bordeaux although he is not certain when he will make his trip. Bruté is to tell Father Vespre that the box he sent has been received by Father Stephen Dubuisson in good condition. They will have three priests next week, Franklin and Regan who will be ordained, and Roger Baxter who is already in fourth theology at Stonyhurst. He supposes Bruté has heard of the death of Father Brooke a week ago after receiving only extreme unction. :: II-3-n A.L.S. 3pp. 4to., 6
