Crébuchet, Abbe G.T., Mont-Ferrand, France, to Archbishop John Mary Odin, C.M., Lyons, France, 1867 October 21

At the beginning of July he received a letter from Father Francis M. Marion who accompanied Odin to France saying that the Superior of the seminary had told him that Crébuchet wished to go to America and that Marion planned to speak to Odin about him; and that they planned to leave France at the end of September. Crébuchet replied that he was ready to go but since he has not heard from Odin he thought he had found enough subjects without him so he was preparing to go to the foreign mission seminary in Paris when he learned that Odin was to come here to get him. This information came through Father Jacquet, a director of the seminary. He asks for a reply so that he can go to the foreign mission seminary if it is not favorable; otherwise he will have to spend another year at Mont-Ferrand. :: VI-2-m A.L.S. French 3pp. 12mo.
