Aimée, R.U.? Sister, New Orleans, Louisiana, to Archbishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1850 December 1

Aimée would like to be able to write at length but Mother wants to have sent the letter which will stop Blanc's anxiety. Blanc has told Aimée that he would write to the Holy Father what he knows of her position; Aimée would like to know the contents of this letter. She has asked Blanc to keep her request as under the seal of Confession as she does not want Mother and the Sisters to know. This is why she had not talked to Father Napoleon Joseph Perché, in order not to embarrass him if some one asked him about her. Last Friday she saw their chaplain and he asked her what she was doing. She replied that she believed she would end by asking the dispensation of her vow of poverty and obedience. He then spoke with the aim of expressing how extravagant was the thought of returning to the convent. :: V-5-n A.L.S. French 3pp. 4to.
