Sognie, resident of Caabanose, appeared and stated that he had discussed marriage with Dionicia Arcenau of the same place. He is a native of St. James' parish, son of Maria Bro and Jose Sognie, son of Santiago Sognie. Dionicia is the daughter of Juan Carlos Arcenau and M(ari)a Josefa Babin, daughter of Basilio Babin and Ana Sognie, daughter of Santiago Sognie. So they are related in the second and third degree. There has been gossip about them, quieted by the pastor and Commandant. He asks for a dispensation. Father (Isidro) Quintero at the beginning of the letter states that Sognie appeared.
