Madagascar

Petition on behalf of Vincent de Paul. He asks that since there are ships departing for Madagascar this autumn, Nicolò Etienne should be declared a missionary, in order for him to assist the other CM missionaries already in Madagascar. Underneath, the nuncio to France, Nicolò Guidi di Bagno, testifies that Nicolò Etienne is able and worthy to be included in this mission. He signs with his own name on 12 September 1659. The petition was discussed during the general meeting of 23 September 1659 and the cardinals agreed to it.
