Letter from PF to Gio' LeVacher [Jean Le Vacher]. And'a Sta'ino [Andrea Stadino?] an Othodox Greek priest, obtained freedom from the Dey of Tripoli, after being kept in slavery for a number of years. He informed PF about the need of missionaries to help the slaves, due to the great numbers of slaves in the city. He asked PF for the faculties to help them, but since they have no information about this Greek priest, they ask Le Vacher to inform them about his qualities.
