Gallwey, R.S.H.J., Madame J., St. Michael's, Louisiana, to Bishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1846 February 27

Their building and other affairs have kept Sister from answering Blanc's letter. At last they have found a superintendent, a gentleman highly recommended. She would be pleased if Blanc could see the plans. Father A. Pierre Ladavière, S.J. is greatly pleased with the arrangements. Health is restored but their children enter slowly; they have but 51. Madame Verret, R.S.H.J. still lingers; Madame Miller, R.S.H.J. complains again. If Blanc comes they may be able to decide on First Communion. Sister would like it before Blanc leaves for Europe. They look for Madame Maria Cutts R.S.H.J. after the feast of St. Joseph. :: V-5-e A.L.S. 3pp. 4to.
