Morisot, Father J.M., New Orleans, Louisiana, to Father Stephen Rousselon, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1854 April 10

Morisot thanks Rousselon for getting his letters from the post office and sending them. He will carry out the Archbishop's orders. But last Sunday, "he" said Mass while Morisot was in the confessional. Morisot was much surprised at "his" arrival and as he only saw him on the altar, he could not talk with him. At present he is at the home of his sister-in-law and is looking for a boat to return to France. P.S. Morisot is preparing the children for First Communion which he has set for Quasimodo Sunday. He counts on 60 communicants. He is so-so. Instructions for Lent were well carried out at Annunciation Church . Morisot is having some work done to stop the water from coming in the gallery, then he will have it paved in front of the church. :: VI-1-g A.L.S. French 2pp. 4to.
