Approximately 17 months ago he wrote to PF, about his wish to use the opportunity to travel by Pantelleria and Tabarca, to Tunis and Algiers. He would have been able to do this in such a way, that the Lomellini would have allowed his passage over Tabarca. The Procurator Di Corre wrote to him, saying that for now there was nothing else Da Genoa could do. PF however, told him to inform them everything he knows, and therefore Da Genoa will continue doing so. He received a letter from the vicar apostolic of Algiers [Philippe Le Vacher] containing good news; the administration of the bagni is proceeding in good order, there is a bishop in place, and there are enough priests. He only regrets that the Capuchins have left the mission and travelled to Tabarca.

According to the author of the letter, the French priest was of little use, especially in confessions, since he did not know any Italian, only French. The letter also mentions that there were 25,000 Christians in Algiers at that time, and that more priests were needed to provide to their needs, especially now, when the plague was making more and more victims. The letter adds that there were many priests (in Genoa?) ready to go on this mission, not minding the dangers involved. A new prefect for the Capuchin mission in Barbary had to be elected, on account of the death of the previous one (Giuseppe Maria da Genoa). There was also a new "king" in Tunis, who was of Christian descent and sympathetic to Christians. Additional comments The French priest mentioned here could be Jean Barreau.
