Petition of the Reverend Father Laurent of Angoulesme, Vice-Provincial of the Capuchins in the East Indies, presented to the Lord Bishop of San Thomé by the Reverend Father Michel Ange of Bourges.
Most Illustrious and Most Reverend the Bishop of Meliapur, — The Reverend Father Fra Laurent of Angoulesme, Guardian of the Capuchin friars, missionaries in this East India, states that he has appealed from a Declaration of Your Most Illustrious Lordship launched against the Reverend Father Fra Esprit of Tours to the effect that he has incurred excommunication ; and that, having several times asked for the Apostoli, his request was refused ; and since it will be necessary for the suppliant to have attested copies of the orders passed against the Reverend Father, also attestations to the copies herewith submitted, with a view to their presentation to the competent tribunal, where he hopes to be listened to and restored to his rights; he hereby prays Your Most Illustrious Lordship to be pleased to order the Notary of your Chancery to thoroughly compare the copies with the originals and attest them, certifying the signatures and attestations, so that they may be admitted as good evidence and equal to the originals.
