What Are Some Fun Ipod Touch Games

Monks and usefulness Marine

I mentioned recently Lighthouse Pointe Saint-Mathieu and his monastery, a young reader Rome (Italy) was even observed that "We used to pray against shipwrecks, now, we light the lights." If I think a document that I fell the other day in the archives looking for something else, it does stop there:


National Archives, funds navy veterans, B 2 390

This is the copy on record of a dispatch sent by the Minister of Marine in La Roche -Amon, Archbishop of Rheims and chairman of the board regulars - Committee appointed by Louis XV in 1766 following the wishes of the archbishop of Toulouse, Lomenie de Brienne, to reform the French regular clergy. Transcript for those paleography in miniature on screen does not try:

M. Duke Archbishop of Rheims.
has Versaille February 10, 1769.

The account given to me, sir, any kind of relief that people [scratched: the Crew] sea rescued from the wreck of the King's Gabarre Dorothy who was lost to Point St. Mathieu fired Religious [scratched: Abbey] the monastery of that name you undertake to observe that their home is its location in the most useful in cases of this kind, and that eliminating it is threatened, since it is unfounded can maintain the number of religious demands that the King in each monastery, would be regarded as an unfortunate event for all seafarers If you think, sir, that this consideration may be excepted from the general rule the house in question, I Seray much obliged to propose conservation and kindly inform me of the party be taken in this regard.

I have the honor of being the most perfect attachment, Sir, yours & c.

few notes: First, it ignores the nature of the relief it is. The monks have they rolled up their clothes to go fish the sea? Or did they merely offer a first step in their prayer and a second hot wine? I would not delve into the archives of the Finistère département (who probably collected the archives of the said monastery, in the end) to see that. Second remark: after a few years (1782 I think), we decided to build a lighthouse there, which leaves pener that the request was not heard. If indeed it was written for be heard, or simply to please the prior of the house in question.

course, all this has absolutely nothing to do with the subjects mind. Anyway, since I had it on hand ...

( And in other news: samples sent by a doctor Tréguier the Department of the Navy in 1786 was not really marble. Tréguier From marble, must say, it would have been a scoop. )
