Scope and Contents

The undersigned members of the Catholic congregation of Alexandria have been for a long time chagrined at the dilapidated situation of their church. In order to wipe out the stain on the congregation of Rapides, they have taken steps for a ladies' fair on February 23. But they are few in number and cannot hope to raise enough money. Ivers' residence among them was short but it endeared him to them. They request that he mention the matter to his congregation and to the Bishop. Signed also by Harriet Burger, Rose Prescott, Amanda Ransdell, Louise Biossat . Added, in one hand Eliza Posey, E. Nestor, Caroline Posey :: V-5-f A.L.S. 3pp. 4to.
