Cauvin, Father D. André, St. Bernard, Terre aux Boeufs, Louisiana, 1863 September 21

Cauvin's health does not permit him to remain in the parish any longer. The rent for some church lands and the money for the pews for the last three years being due to him, as well as almost all fees, he wished to delay until the new year, hoping to collect a part of these debts; he foresees that it would be in vain. He needs money to pay his debts and for his trip. If Odin sends his replacement, the latter could charge himself with his debts and in return Cauvin would cede all his furniture to him. :: VI-2-g A.L.S. French 2pp. 8vo.
