Letter from PF to the nuncio to France, Bernardino Spada, 1627-03-13, Rome

Cardinal rings

Letter from PF to Cardinal Spada, letting him know that the cardinals of PF do not think it is a good idea that the pope write a letter to the archbishop of Paris asking him to pay the cardinal ring fee. Instead, PF asks Cardinal Bentivogli to write the archbishop an "effective" letter, hoping that it would produce the desired results, together with the efforts of Cardinal Spada himself, especially considering the success that he [Cardinal Spada] had had with Cardinal de Sourdis on a similar matter. PF also asks Cardinal Spada to remind Cardinal de La Valette about his promise to pay for his own cardinal ring, and about the fact that many other French cardinals have already paid their dues. The second part of letter refers to Gabriel Sionita.
