Modena, Joseph
At(t)acapas, Louisiana

to (Father Antonio de Sedella, O.M.Cap., ecclesiastical Judge)
(New Orleans, Louisiana)

Memorial against father Bernardo de Deva He has been sacristan at Attacapas for two years and nine months. One day Father Bernardo de Deva entered the store of ( ) Lusel where Modena was and with threatening language and gestures accused him of being responsible for the theft of his (De Deva's) horse. Another time when Modena was in the church De Deva accused him of so arranging that Marcela had been violated by Jose Coleta. Note: He says that having played (dice) with Manuel de Prados in the presence of Feliz Lopez he lost five oxen, a cow with her calf and fourteen pesos, which he paid on the spot and before Father De Deva. Note: One evening an official named Don Domingo (______) came to the house of De Deva and proposed a game (of dice). Modena won from him fifty pairs of shoes valued at two pesos a pair. That night through trickery and in the presence of Fathers De Deva and Pedro Zamora the official got the note for the shoes and tore it up. For these reasons Modena asks justice.

Cabanas, Maria J(ose)pha Albares

Jerez, (Xerez) Margarita, sister of Father Xerez
Madrid, (Spain)
no. 2
She will find it hard to leave the house where she has been serving for thirty years. When Father Xerez sends her aid he should direct it to Pedro Gallegos at Havana and charge him to forward it to Juan Estan(islao) Ruiz de Bilboa in Madrid. She asks that Father Xerez give the same directions to J(ua)n Ant(oni)o Ximenes.

Arazena, (O.M.Cap.) Father J(ose)ph de
Lafourche, (Louisiana)
no.3
He hopes that Father Xerez is rested from his long voyage. He supposes that Father Xerez has received the tobacco which he sent together with the package for Father Francisco (de Acosta, (?) O.M.Cap.). It is a simple matter to send Father Xerez tobacco every year; however the best tobacco comes from Natchitoches, (Louisiana). He has heard that the salary of the missionaries had finally arrived he wishes that Father Xerez would send him his and he sends documents authorizing Xerez to receive and forward his (Arazena's) share.

(Zamora, O.M.Cap.) Father Pedro (de)
Opelusas, (Opelousas, Louisiana)
no. 4
He has not heard from Father Xerez though he has written asking for news. Father Arazena has left him so many affairs that he feels obliged to go to New Orleans though he does not wish to. He has asked George the Catalan for some provisions which have not been sent. Father Pedro asks that if the "orders" have been received his be sent with the bearer (of this letter).

A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
(______)
(Brunete, O.M.Cap.) Father Mariano (de)
(______)
no. 5
He asks that the Holy Oils be sent to him. He would have been glad had they named Xerez vicar when Father Antonio (de Sedella) left. Is it true that Father Antonio is going to Spain?

A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
(______)
(Brunete, O.M.Cap.) Father Mariano, (de)
(______)
no. 6
He is sorry for Father Xerez' tragedy. Father Xerez may speak to the governor (Estevan Miro) about debts owed to Mariano so that after paying certain sums to Pedro Boygas (Boigas) and (
) Martinez he may use the remainder for his needs. For this reason he encloses a statement of what is owed to him. (Then follows) the amounts owed by,
Juan Morales
(______) Machado
(______) Quintana
(______) Casanova
(______) Lamar
Miguel Duret
Blas Ramos
Francisco Fheirera
Domingo Miguel
Christobal Ojea
Mariano has left out the names of those from whom Marigni (Pierre Philippe de Marigny?) has already collected.
