### [338.2.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darkages.travel.manucci~en-irvine.338.2.8)

The Abate found it impossible to obtain the money from the Armenians; for in spite of all the pressure he put upon them, they would never agree to pay. He saw also that under this head he could never, without a great scandal and some damage to himself, squeeze the Capuchins any farther; for he knew quite well that on this question they were altogether without fault. He must work up a new intrigue, invent another cabal, and totally change his devices. This was necessary before he could totally ruin them, and obtain his own cherished object and the depraved design of him who advised him. Consultations were held every night in the convent of these same Capuchins from nine to twelve o'clock between the Abate and his compatriot. It was decided to convey to the \[Capuchin\] superior an order to go to Pondicherry to render an account to the Lord Nuncio of his person and proceedings. Let it be remarked at this point that the Abate had already ended his visitation at Madras, during which the \[Capuchin\] superior had given in rigore juris \[as required by strict law\] an account of his mission, of his doings, and of his person. The direction above referred to was given because they well knew he would be detained by order of the \[Madras\] governor in connection with this same Abate, for reasons which can be seen elsewhere.
