Legrand, Father F., Grand Coteau, Louisiana, to Archbishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1851 February 4
Scope and Contents
He left Pont de Brand last Saturday and is now here to carry out the duty Blanc gave him. He has been obliged to stay longer as his affairs have as yet not been settled perfectly. He has not exercised the ministry except to hear the confession of a woman in danger of death. His parishioners do not suspect the reason for his leaving; he let them believe he left voluntarily. He plans to leave Thursday or Friday for Opelousas and Washington and take the steamer there. He has hope only in God and Blanc during this short retreat. If Blanc withdraws his hand, Legrand will be lost body and soul. :: VI-1-a A.L.S. French 2pp. 4to.
