Additional Description

Container Summary

1 ALS in French from Jan Philip Roothaan, S.J. in Rome to Albert Roothaan sending regrets about the bad news from naples on the business front; inquiring for a local of Dutch descent if his estranged parents are alive and, if not, if there is any inheritance (Matthias Crus or Kroes); and sending regards to the Prefect of the Mission to Surinam, Msgr. de Wykenloot, and Mr. Le Sage ten Brock. "J'en suis fache pour vous et vos amis. Mais il n'y a pas de mal dont le bon Dieu ne tire le bien pour ceux qui l'aiment, et un acte de patience et de resignation vaut bien tous les tresors de ce monde. Heureux le veritable Chretien!"
