Armengol, C.M., Father Bonaventure, Assumption, Louisiana, to Bishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1841 December 13

Father J.M. Mignard, C.M. returned from Thibodeaux day before yesterday, Father Charles Boutelou de St. Aubin not having returned to his post any sooner. He returned there today the pastor having to be away to make final arrangements for his change. Mignard assisted a little Negress of 13 who was hanged. He baptized her and she went to her death as to a festival. Her crime was throwing her little mistress of 4 or 5 years into a well; the latter suffered no injury at all. John's sight is growing weaker; he must go to New Orleans at the first occasion for an examination. All goes well at their seminary. Mr. Berger will remain there until a place is found for him; he asks Blanc to send his trunk. Armengol sends respects to Fathers Rousselon and Maenhaut. :: V-4-l A.L.S. French 3pp. 4to.
