Slaves (Christian)

Description

Petition on behalf of Jean Le Vacher, vicar apostolic in Tunis, to PF. He writes that there are many slaves in Tunis, but too few priests, meaning that not all slaves can easily attend mass (as they used to). Therefore he asks for the faculty that he, and one other priest appointed by him, may say mass three times a day on Sundays and on feast days.
