My dear Bishop,
I have written to the H Chaplains in Paris, notifying your kind [?] to confession there for me on “the Sunday next before Easter” April 13th.
I have had an Authorization prepared for my seal & [?].
Will you please to let me know your Christian names, as the Almanaeks & Calendars only give “C. P.”
I will then have the document completed, and at once, forward it to you.
Believe me,
My dear Bishop,
Yours very [?],
of London
The Rt. Revd.
The Bishop of Ohio
