Beauclerc, Victor, New Orleans, Louisiana, to Bishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1841 February 28

In giving his recommendation to the Governor, Blanc has not asked any guarantee except Beauclerc's word. Beauclerc wishes to justify such confidence by telling Blanc of the difference between the instruction he proposes and that being used in the schools today. If his system seems useful Blanc can speak with more assurance; if it seems useless Beauclerc will confine himself to employment more suited to his talents. He then outlines his course of instruction. He believes Jefferson College Convent, Louisiana would profit by adopting his system. If at the end of three months, favorable results are not seen, he will resign. He would remain at the College as long as necessary to complete his work so that it would not fail after he left., P.ZS. His landlady, Mrs. Douce, has moved and he has gone along; he is now at the corner of Conti and Bourbon Streets. :: V-4-l A/L/S/ French 7pp. 4to.
