Jérôme-Marie Champion de Cicé to Benjamin Franklin, December 27, 1783
Jérôme-Marie Champion de Cicé writes to Benjamin Franklin expressing support for American Catholics and the Abbé de la Roche, while requesting clarification on how Catholic services are currently conducted, the source of priests' authority, and how clergy are financially supported. He seeks this information to better propose future plans for the Catholic community in America.
