Dupuy, Father Ennemond, Iberville, Louisiana, to Father Etienne Rousselon, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1858 January 30

If Rousselon knows what has become of Father Maria Emmanuel, O.S.C.O ., he is to write to write to Gethsemani. Dupuy has just received a letter from the Abbot; they are very worried about Emmanuel; they seem believe that he perished in a boat. Emmanuel was to write to Dupuy before leaving New Orleans; he did not. The Abbot said that they had received a letter from Iberville dated January 29. It must have been Abbeville or Iberia because Emmanuel left Iberville January 21. Rousselon is to tell the Archbishop that Dupuy has at last baptized Ex-Governor Hébert' s wife. She now wants to be confirmed. She is going to the city in a few days; she will stay at the St. Charles Hotel. She is ill and Dupuy does not know whether she can come to see the Archbishop. :: VI-1-n A.L.S. French 1p. 4to.
