Denavit, Father, Lyons, France, to Archbishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1856 March 25
Scope and Contents
About 2 weeks ago, Denavit told Blanc of the departure of two missionaries going to Texas and embarking in the Gaspard. A misunderstanding prevented them from taking the boat; they are to take the Wurtemberg on March 28 and will probably arrive in New Orleans around the middle of May. Denavit has received a letter from Bishop John Mary Odin since he left New Orleans and after an edifying account of the provincial council Odin added that two missionaries would be welcomed at New Orleans by the Archbishop who would show them their destination. Denavit has not yet heard of Father Stephen Rousselon 's return from Rome; he would be happy if he could give Rousselon some seminarians to accompany him to New Orleans. :: VI-1-j A.L.S.
