Beauclerc, Victor, New Orleans, Louisiana, to Bishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1841 February 2

Beauclerc called at Blanc's house several days ago and regrets he did not find him. He gave one of the servants the book Blanc loaned to Miss de L. His means obliged him to leave the hotel; he is now in a furnished house in Rue de la Douane. He has been confined to his room by an all over aching but when he recovers he will come to pay his respects. He can live for six weeks but then he will be destitute. He begs Blanc to find employment for him and spare his family new sorrow. The separation which Blanc considers necessary will take place when he has the means to carry it out. He has not received any news of the Marquise or his children. This long silence disturbs him more than the deplorable state of his health and the new misfortunes which threaten him. :: V-4-l A.L.S.
