Cauvin, Father Anthony, Nice, France, to Archbishop Napoleon Joseph Perché, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1873 September 23

Cauvin asked Father E.J. Foltier to tell Perché of his departure for Europe in order to rest after 26 years of continual work in the priesthood. Before he left he had expected to receive the mortgage on Foltier's church as collateral for the loan of $25,000. As Foltier wrote that the delay was due to the negligence of the charge d'affaires of the Archdiocese, Cauvin asks Perché to have it sent to him immediately at Nice. The interest should also be sent there 15 or 20 days before the due date so that those who made the loan can have it when it falls due. :: VI-2-o A.L.S. French 3pp. 12mo.
