Petition on behalf of CM Superior Vincent de Paul to PF [1651-1652]

Salé

Petition on behalf of Vincent de Paul to send CM missionaries to Salé. It mentions that the consul of Salé had for many years solicited Vincent de Paul for the matter, and that only now has he (Vincent de Paul) found it possible to respond to this request. If PF finds it desirable, Vincent de Paul can recommend a few of his priests for this mission, with the approval of the nuncio.

Date discussed 1652-01-05 (see P. Coste, ed., Saint Vincent de Paul: correspondance, entretiens, documents (Paris: 1920-25), vol. 4, no. 1443, fn. 3).

Additional comments

Probably written and presented by the superior of the CM house in Rome.
