Reverend and dear Sir

Many Thanks for your kind letter, and your kindness towards my little imbecile Alfred [1] He has taken it into his head to become a Merchant or a Shopkeeper or a Workman but whether that caprice will last it remains to be seen - I leave him in your hands to decide as you see his dispositions are for one thing or the other - You know I am a great advocate for Writing andp2Cyphering - How would it be to put him to the Xaverien Brothers or to the Brothers of Charity for a week to reflect - He can be received at Namur Collège if he likes because it is not known - I think had he been at Turnhout or Alost his Vocation for a Priest would have lasted but Namur is too grandiose - I know you are a friend of the Jesuits and so am I in all but their neglect of Writing and account keeping - If he still thinks p3of being a Shopkeeper - it is necessary he learns Writing and Arithmatic, and he could try the Xaveriens at Bruges or the Josephites at Louvain or the Brothers of Misericorde at Mechlin - Your discretion will not permit you to offer him all these for his selection - but you will kindly try and ascertain his wishes for his future establishment in life - and propose what you think best -p4I write to him by this post also,[2] and hope he will see that he has acted in a way unworthy of him - I can not express my feelings of gratitude sufficiently for your kindness to him, and I trust you will be able to accomplish much for him by your advice -

Hoping to hear very soon & leaving every thing to your discretion
believe me to remain
Your ever Obliged friend

It is much better he should prepare for commerce by learning Writing & Cyphering but I do not despair of his becoming a Priest yet - but I would not push the Vocation just now - By the bye can you tell me if you have any apartments now free at Bruges Madame Claeys or at Spermalie Convent -
