Blanchet, Widow J., New Iberia, Louisiana, to Archbishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1856 November 20

Last year when Octavie Blanchet left the convent, Madame Amélie Jouve, R.S.C.J. Jouvre promised to take her sister Aurélia Blanchet in her place. Jouvre wrote through Madame Martinez to send Aurélia whenever she could. Blanchet could not do it last year and does not know if there is a place this year. So she asks Blanc to speak for her. The promise was made by Madame Cutts, Madame Leveque and Jouvre but they do not know Blanchet. Blanchet's mother was better after Blanc's visit but 2 weeks ago she became ill again. Blanchet's servant has also been ill. They have had trouble here with the negroes who want to revolt. Blanchst sends regards to Mrs. St. Marc and Mrs. Dubuclet and to Mrs. Blanchet. P.S. Blanchet's intention is to send Aurélia in the spring. :: VI-1-k A.L.S. French 4pp. 4to.
