Marion, Father P.M., New Orleans, Louisiana, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1862 November 8

Purcell's letter of Oct. 9 causes him to be uneasy about the box containing the chalice and other articles sent by his family. He would be obliged if Purcell would take some steps to find the box. According to Purcell's letter it appears that the box was sent to Miss Florence and her mother. He charged no worth to claim the box. He believes that Miss Florence is lying about the matter. She wrote him that she could not send the box to New Orleans; now she says she sent it. He attaches a list of the articles. :: II-5-b A.L.S. France 4pp. 12mo.
