 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-1-m

Scope and Contents

Timon expresses his sorrow at not finding the Freeman's Journal in France, and wishes to subscribe for Rev. Mr. Salvayne, No. 95 Rue de Severs, Paris. He will pay for this subscription upon his return. He expresses the desire to find other subscribers for McMaster. Timon asks McMaster if the latter would buy a few pounds of Natchitoches snuff and have some one try to smuggle it into Paris, as it is against the law to bring it in. The snuff should be taken to Mr. Steurchi, No. 95 Rue de Severs. He will also pay for this upon his return. He states that there is much suffering in France in consequence of the lack of confidence and the stagnation of business. This will impede success, but he hopes that his trip will be useful to his diocese. :: I-1-m A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.
