Letter from PF to Car'le Antonio [Antonio Barberini Jr.]. CM superior general [René Alméras] informed PF about the great need for missionaries in Madagscar, as most have died. Due to these circumstances, Giacomo della Fossa [Jacques de La Fosse], Robert Menan, Claudio de la Salle [Claude de La Salle], Massimiliano Fran'co Caveron [Maximilien François Cuvron] and Michele Manie [Michel Manie] have been asked to be sent to the mission. De La Fosse should be made prefect in the case that Nicolò Estienne [Nicolas Etienne] has died. They ask Anotnio Barberini Jr. to decide whether the proposed candidates are suitable for the mission.
