Pedro Salvant appeared before Quintero and swore that he was a native and resident of the parish of New Orleans eight leagues down the river, that he was the son of Juan Salvant and Maria Luisa Lambre, 20 years old and single, and had given his word of marriage to no one but Margarita Paturel, that there was no other impediment except consanguinity. This is signed by the bishop's flourish and Salvant's signature, Pierre Salvant, certified by Quintero.

Jose Chemy immediately appeared as witness and swore to (the same information given by Salvant above) and that it seems that Salvant had promised to marry Margarita Paturel and had frequented her house since a child, that it was public knowledge that he had wronged his fiancee and that therefore no one would want to marry her except Salvant. Chemy is 35 years old. This is signed by the bishop and Quintero certifies as pro- secretary.

Quintero, Father Isidro
New Orleans, (Louisiana)

Complying with the above decree, Salvant appeared before the bishop and swore that he had wronged Margarita Paturel, but through weakness and not in order to get a dispensation. Salvant signs this testimony and Quintero certifies to it.

D.S. (Spanish)1796 Jul. 30

Penalver y Cardenas, Luis, Bishop of
New Orleans, Louisiana

Penalver, having examined the testimony regarding Pedro Salvant, grants the dispensation. They must live separately, make a general confession, for two months they must recite daily the three parts of the rosary and confess once each month. The decree is to be sent to the pastor of the Cathedral who, having obtained parental consent and making sure of the fulfillment of the penance and having published the banns, will marry them. Quintero certifies to this decree and adds in two notes that he notified Salvant of the decree and sent the decree to the pastor of the Cathedral.
