Letter from Antonio Di Seravezza, a Minor Observant working in Tunis, in which he complains about the fact that Giuseppe della Pantellaria [Giuseppe Merino della Pantelleria] does not recognize his authority; the letter signed and dated 26 June 1669. PF notes state that Di Seravezza abusively signs with "vicar delegate" despite having no such title (Jean Le Vacher, missionary of CM, is vicar apostolic of Tunis). At their meeting of 10 September 1669 the cardinals decide: a) that Di Seravezza should be written to stating that he should not exercise faculties that he does not have; and b) that Le Vacher should be instructed to put an end to these disorders.
