Description
An account of the resource
Copy of a letter from PF secretary [Urbano Cerri] to Marcello Costa. The secretary tells him that the cardinals will be displeased to hear that Jean Le Vacher has given him the provision of 30 scudi, before he even arrived at his new mission in Bizerte. Usually the provision starts from the day that PF receives confirmation that a missionary arrived at his destination. Therefore PF will not immediately pay the 30 scudi back. The secretary orders Costa to first go to his mission and start reporting from there, providing he wants to receive a provision from PF. The letter dated 4 November 1673.

Description
An account of the resource
Letter from Girolamo Da Sassari to Antonio Di Saraveza [Antonio Di Seravezza]. He has been in Rome for two months, due to the problems in Tunis. They have decided that there will be a Capuchin mission in the city, and that he will be its prefect. Many things that padre Damiano proposed were accepted (the kind of things that were only in their interest), which is why he does not want to go back to Tunis. He is however still willing to help his friend [Di Seravezza]. He hopes that they will see each other again and that he can tell him all the things that he cannot send in writing. Dottore Pagni, the grand duke of Florence, and the secretary of PF [Federico Baldeschi] have both shown him great respect for all the things he has done for the church. Levachier [Jean Le Vacher] cannot any longer pretend to have authority over the mission in Tunis, therefore he should only be concerned about Algiers. Caualli has become bishop in Napels, and he will visit him and give him the letters of Di Seravezza, to tell him about his suffering. He asks him to provide information on how things are going in Tunis. He has tried to help Mustafa della Meca who has converted, and the procurator general of the Celestines will also try to help him. He has given 170 pezze da otto reali to Labar, 150 to ransom Giacinto, and the other twenty are for Di Seravezza. He has also left behind some books, worth 50 pezze da otto reali, which should be used to atone Sig'r Carletto and Sig'r Biagio. He also asks to greet Sig'r Capitan Bernardo Rapalli, and Patron Martino, both from the bagno of San Francesco, and Angelo Bernardelli, Giulio Anastasio, Gio' Antonio, Andrea Caraca. He has tried to ransom the slave from Civitavecchia, but they did not want to let him go. PF wants the consul [Jean Ambrozin] to pay back everything he took from the church. He has been suprised that the consul has shown their writings, because it is very damaging to his reputation, but not to Da Sassari's. Before he can return to Tunis, he will first have to go to Sardinia, in order to see his general.
Date discussed: 1670-11-10
Additional comments
Because the paper is torn the two last numbers of the year are missing. Even though Girolamo Da Sassari says he has been in Rome for two months, he left Tunis in September 1668. The month of the letter is January, so the year has to be 1669. According to the discussion in PF many things described by Girolamo Da Sassari in this letter are made up by him. APF SOCG 424, 242r-243v (database item 748).
This would mean that Antonio Di Seravezza would still have been in Tunis, as he did not leave before August 1669.

Letter from PF to Gio' Ambrosini [Jean Ambrozin]. For a very long time PF has had a vicar apostolic in Tunis, in order to help the many Christian slaves living there. Now however, Gio' LeVacher [Jean Le Vacher], who used to be vicar apostolic, has left. PF still wants to provide for the spiritual needs of the slaves, and therefore a new vicar apostolic is needed. PF asks Ambrozin to propose a candidate that excels in Christian piety, and has the required skills. In the case that he is not able to select a suitable candidate, he needs to inform PF, who will find someone themselves.

Description
An account of the resource
Letter from PF to Gio' LeVacher [Jean Le Vacher]. In Rome is a deposit of 1,000 pezze da otto, that the Dey orginally gave to some Maltese captains in order to ransom a slave in Messina. They kept the money for themselves until they arrived in Rome, where they were forced to deposit it. This was done in order to make sure that the slaves in Barbary would not suffer because of the incident. The Dey threatened to compensate his loss with the money intended for the ransoming of Christian slaves. As the Dey has since died, there is no more risk of persecution. To be sure of this they ask Le Vacher to inform them about the exact situation, and to write an extensive report in order to enable PF to make a decision on the case.
Additional comments
The names of the Maltese captains involved are: Serafino and Giovanni Vincenzo Piccinini, and Giuseppe and Franceso Guevara.
