Scope and Contents

Yesterday the pastor of Donaldsonville read to Gilly, Rousselon's letter of the 8th in which he let Gilly know that the Archbishop wanted him to go at once to the seminary. Gilly hastened to obey although it meant giving up the pleasure of seeing Rousselon. Rousselon will not find it surprising that after arriving in a foreign country, he wishes to know his new superiors. He asks to be permitted to go to New Orleans, Gilly is to see Father Joseph Michael Paret to give him news of his parents; Gilly is the only one in the group who saw them in leaving France. Gilly's trunk is in the city and he needs many things he does not want to ask for in the house. :: VI-1-h A.L.S. French 3pp. 4to.
