Guesdon, C.S.C., Father Isidore, New Orleans, Louisiana, to Archbishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1855 May 24

Guesdon learned yesterday that the Sisters Marianites of the Holy Cross of the Ouvroir, through Blanc's mediation, were going to enjoy a new site. Guesdon expresses the gratitude of the little society of which he is the head. Sister Mary of the Five Wounds intends soon to get some small proceeds to enable her to procure subscriptions which Blanc has permitted Sister Mary of the Passion to open for the construction of rooms for the Ouvroir. It is not enough to have land, there must be housing. She will also try to encourage the good ladies who have already aided her so much. :: VI-1-i A.L.S. French 2pp. 4to.
