Boglioli, C.M., Father Charles, Donaldsonville, Louisiana, to Archbishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1858 November 9

Boglioli apologizes for his delay in answering Blanc's letter. It was only a few days ago that he saw the doctor who had first treated Blanc for his broken leg. Boglioli has carried out the commission which Blanc gave him. The doctor has been a little offended because the newspaper did not give him the credit due him. Boglioli also talked with the doctor about his remuneration; he said that under the circumstances he could expect $20 to $25. His name is Timoleon Mathieu ?. He is a Catholic and is very flattered to have done what he did for Blanc. He says he is going to take care of the mosquito netting he loaned to Blanc like a relic and wants to die under it. They have had much sickness in the last two or three months. Boglioli's two confreres are well. In a few weeks Boglioli hopes to go down to the city. :: VI-1-o A.L.S. French 2pp. 4to.
