Mr. Yvert

[Colin's handwriting:]

[1]: Your kind letter brought me the greatest pleasure. It had been so long since I had received news from you, and you had inspired so much interest in me that I truly wished to learn how you were doing. I did not fail to mention you to our Reverend Superior, Mr. Colin, who was deeply moved by your kind remembrance and the zeal that animates you. "I cannot bring myself," he said in conversation, "to advise this holy man, given his position, to leave for New Zealand. However, if others were to advise him, and he decided on his own, I would be pleased. He would undoubtedly render great services to Bishop Pompallier, who would make an excellent catechist out of him. If he were to take the latter course in this way, I would write immediately to Bishop Pompallier to treat him as a Marist and to show him all possible respect."
[2]: He told me this in conversation, and I am conveying it to you confidentially.
[3]: As for Mr. Roulleaux, the Superior told me, "This gentleman is in a different position. It would be very good for him to come here for a retreat. He would get to know us and might be happy to stay with us if the good Lord calls him to do so."
[4]: [Poupinel's handwriting:] In the rest of the letter, I encouraged him to seek advice from Messrs. Montargis and Leherpeur and other things... Victor Poupinel.
