De la Croix, Father Cyril, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, to Archbishop John Mary Odin, C.M., New Orleans, Louisiana, 1866 November 18

Since the close of the mission by the Redemptorists, De la Croix's occupations and health have kept him from visiting. He sends this with Mr. Garnier . More than 900 received Communion, there were 150 First Communions. 15 Protestants were received into the Church. De la Croix established a conference of St. Vincent de Paul. But his health is not equal to it and he must have at least one assistant. :: VI-2-l A.L.S. French 2pp. 4to.
