May 15, 1839 — Letter from Victor Poupinel to Fr. Tesson (Paris)
Translated by ChatGPT, January 2024.
According to the Coste transcription in Archives des Missions Etrangères, Séminaire 44, p. 231, APM 34/27278.
- Reverend Father,
- [1]
- I had the honour of receiving your letter on Sunday morning.
- [2]
- Our missionaries are scheduled to embark in London on June 1st; two will leave from here on Monday or Tuesday morning, the others two or three days later, and it is to your hospitality that they will turn, as you graciously made it a matter of obligation for them.
- [3]
- It is not for me to express our gratitude to you, but having written to our superior yesterday, I informed him of your continued willingness to support our mission.
- [4]
- The Archbishop of Lyon is going to write to Mr. de Saint-Hilaire to recommend our missionaries.
- [5]
- A visit from you to the Director of the Colonies could sometimes expedite this matter, which would be all the more desirable since our missionaries can only stay in Paris for a very short time; they are scheduled to embark from Boulogne.
- [6]
- Receive the homage of the deepest respect with which I have the honuor to be, reverend father, your very humble and obedient servant,
- Victor Poupinel
