Fr. Gautier writes to Sister Turgis and in the form of a living eulogy tells her that she is destined to be beside Louis and thus will be able to share in her wisdom, virtue and example. Indeed she will be able to share the spirit that has been communicated to Louise. He says: "I believe you will be able to nurse from her breasts as a child is fed by her mother."

1654

Vincent write to Charles Ozenne: "I imagine that good Monsieur Guillot and his companions have now reached Warsaw....As for the Daughters of Charity, they are all set to go, ready to leave by the first opportunity they can find....Monsieru Almeras returned from Sedan yesterday. He had been there for some time, and God so blessed his way of acting that he edified the whole Court, which was there at the time. In addition, Our Lord has led back to the Company Monsieur Chardon, who has left. Monsieur Berthe, who welcomed him in Rome, has written that he is going to send him to Genoa, where he can replace good Monsieur Martin, who is returning to France to take charge of our house in Sedan. God Monsieur de Chesne is still sick in Agde; I have written to him, telling him to go to Cahors or to Notre-Dame de Lorm, where I hope he will be restored to perfect health, and I have written Monsieur Mugnier to go to Agde to take his place. Poor Brother Ducournau is still sick."
