Kane, Father Richard, Donaldsonville, Louisiana, to Archbishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1855 May 7
Scope and Contents
Since Kane's arrival, his health was so feeble that he dared not write about it. He has received liberal attention from this incomparable family. For the last two days he has felt the "vis rediviva" of the country air. Doctor Duffel comes to visit Kane; he finds something wrong in the right lung but he says by good care it may be effectually counteracted. The fits of palpitation he attributes to weakness. Duffel founds his hopes of recovery on Kane's youth. Kane regarded Blanc's command to write about himself an order. :: VI-1-i A.L.S. 2pp. 4to.
