Maxwell, Father James
St. Genevieve, (Missouri)

to (Father Pierre Josef Didier, O.S.B. ?
St. Louis, Missouri)

Maxwell received the two letters and would have answered the first had it arrived before Mr. Collier left. He is sorry not to have arrived before (Didier ?)'s departure. However, he expects to take the trip to St. Louis in conformity with the order of Bishop (Luis Penalver y Cardenas) and at the same time he will profit by the instructions (Didier ?) will have the kindness to give him concerning his parish. IV-5-h A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo. (French)
