Doutreluingne, C.M., Father P.J., Monroe, Louisiana, to Bishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1841 March 23
Scope and Contents
They arrived last night without accident except that the captain took a longer way than necessary. Everywhere they found Methodists full of prejudice against the Catholics. Here they find great indifference. They went first to Judge Bruys who said he was not a Catholic but that he was from Geneva. His daughter is a Catholic. Bruys sent them to Henry O. McEnry, an Irish Catholic, but his wife is not. They hope to say Mass at their house today. They do not know yet if they can find a place to say Mass and have catechism. His confrere, Father James Burlando C.M. joins in sending respects. :: V-4-l A.L.S. French 2pp. 4to.
