BOYER (Jean-François) 1675 - 1755 - Preceptor of the Grand Dauphin (father of Louis XVI), Bishop of MIREPOIX, First Chaplain of the Dauphine, Académie Fce: Letter A.S. "J. the former Bishop of MIREPOIX" - VERSAILLES (78), 10 August - to M. de MARVILLE, Lieutenant General of Police in Paris - 3pp in-4° - about a contested election among the JACOBINS OF NANTES - "Your project is very good, my dear Sir, only think that the Provincial Chapter of these Doctrinaires is being held at the beginning of September, as I believe. You will find here a letter from Father Pasquier, Provincial of the Jacobins of St. James. He is lying, or Brother Renaud is lying himself, when he says that the prior of NANTES is willing to confirm the election. However, I think we should finish. There is still a letter here dictated by our Father Renaud to hasten us. With the Conventuality taken away from Brother Pasquier, I think we should write to the Prior of Nantes, Vicar Provincial, and tell him firmly that the King's intention is that this election be confirmed. Without this firmness this affair will never end... I am delighted that Sieur Neveu is happy with my work. I would however like this election to be done as soon as possible, because I always fear that these gentlemen will escape us. They are a strange race..."
