Description

Letter from PF to Gio' Levacher [Jean Le Vacher], vicar apostolic of Algiers. PF understands that Le Vacher has always cared for the Christians who stay in the areas assigned to him. It is also well known to PF that Le Vacher has always tried to increase the esteem that PF has for him. Now they have come to understand that Le Vacher has ransomed Luigi Da Palermo (a Capuchin priest), at his own expense. It is believed that Da Palermo is very gifted, and he has not only been recommended by PF, but has also been assigned the cure of the slaves in Tunis. PF remind Le Vacher that he has to pay attention to the behavior of Da Palermo.
