Translation of the original letter written in English. The addressee, who was for 13 years an Anglican missionary in America before converting to Catholicism, is requested to invite PF to establish one mission in each and every [American] colony. The general state of Catholicism in America is said to be miserable, also on account of the fact that no missionaries are sent. Regular and secular priests fight each other, and only Spain, Portugal and France promote their interests together with those of religion. Details are given on Nova Scotia, where no missionary was sent in the past nine years. PF notes.
