&lt;p&gt;Valletta 11 Febbraio 1842.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Dopo un anno di esilio, cioè dopo un anno che fui lontano dal caro seno della mia amatissima Madre la Compagnia, io ritorno e domani, piacendo a Dio, partirò per Palermo. Di questo favore, che a mio creder maggior di lui non havvi, dopo Iddio e la S&lt;em&gt;antissi&lt;/em&gt;ma Vergine alla P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenda &lt;/em&gt;ne sono debitore. La ringrazio adunque con tutto il cuore ed in segno della mia riconoscenza le prometto di pregar il Signore per lei in tutte le mie Orazioni. Spero ora che la P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;come mi consolò nel mio primo desiderio così anche mi consolerà nel secondo cioè delle Missioni straniere dalle quali promisi il Signore di dedicarmi con voto, se ciò mi sarà permesso dai Superiori, ogni qual volta mi concedesse il ritorno nel seno della Compagnia. Io so cha a tutto sono inabile, ma spero avvenire col ajuto di colui che mi da questo desiderio di poter aver questa grazia. Sono pronto di andare ovunque; sento però un desiderio per la Siria di ciò parlai al P&lt;em&gt;adre&lt;/em&gt; Ryllo. La prego di tenermi presente nelle sue orazioni, e trovandosi alquanto disocupato di riscontrarmi con qualche sua letterina che mi servirà di sua memoria;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;sono con tutta la stima e rispetto&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Della P&lt;em&gt;aternità&lt;/em&gt; V&lt;em&gt;ostra &lt;/em&gt;M&lt;em&gt;olto &lt;/em&gt;R&lt;em&gt;everenda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
