Scope and Contents

They have begun to say the 100 Masses which Rousselon sent them on January 23 and they would like to receive some other intentions. Last September 8 they elected their new abbot, Father Maria Benedict Benoit, who is a veritable saint, very virtuous and very capable. If Father Henry Aubert were still living he would tell that he is a coarse man but to those who know him like Emmanuel he is truly a child of the Lord. Until Benoit is consecrated, Emmanuel will be in charge of the community. :: VI-2-d A.L.S. French 1p. 4to.
