Scope and Contents

She asks Rousselon to let Father Napoleon Joseph Perché know that if he will send the papers to be signed for Annette and her daughters, Mr. Silicour has two opportunities a week to send them to her. If Rousselon could have influenced the Indian missionary to spend 6 more months here, he would have received from the people what he wished, to have a church built Father F. Zeller told Aliquot last Sunday that it is a good land, not to leave; to pay no attention to his illness. The people would be converted easily; it is not like the city. P.S. Mr. and Mrs. Camille Zouinge ? said that if Rousselon would send some priests the river air would be good for them. It is a very pious household. When Aliquot left the oldest daughter gave her money. Aliquot has not gone back; it is hard to cross the river fasting, at her age. Camille has asked the Archbishop to send his priests when they are ill. There is a separate house and an altar which Zeller made. Zeller may have thought he would go there for Mass. :: VI-1-c A.L.S. French 2pp. 8vo.
