Lamy, Father George, Covington, Louisiana, to Father Etienne Rousselon, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1858 October 19

Lamy is very grateful to Rousselon for the visit of the venerable pastor of Pointe Coup e Father Hubert Thirion?. With him, Lamy was able to accept the death of Father Victor Pivet. Lamy had never thought that a priest who said Mass every day, baptized and preached would make two priests beg him to make his confession. Lamy will come as soon as he can to open his heart to Rousselon. He does not know what in him angered Privet so much; Lamy did all he could to improve Pivet's position. Lamy had warned Pivet about different things regarding the dignity of a priest; Pivet never forgave him. Lamy would like to have the holy oils which Pivet had. Lamy does not know if he had the 35 piastres that Lamy gave him. VI-1-o - A.L.S. - French - 3pp. - 4to. - 3
