Coste, Father J., Pointe a la Hache, Louisiana, to Father Stephen Rousselon, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1861 January 21

He thanks Rousselon for having sent him to Father A. Langlois who has an excellent heart. He wonders if there is not some hope of being employed at a Redemptorist house. Since he has been known by a great number of people in the diocese for more than two years, Rousselon should be able to tell him if there is any possibility of an arrangement as his poor head is in a turmoil. If not, he asks Rousselon to open the door for him in another diocese. He prefers a post situated amidst a group of people which would give him an opportunity to working either for the sick or for the interior? of the church. :: VI-2-d A.L.S. French 1p. 4to.
