ref. 022649César [Cesare] Franciotti (1557-1627), prêtre membre des clercs réguliers de la Mère de Dieu, vénérable de l'Eglise catholique. L.A.S., 6 août 1622, 1/2p in-folio. Attestation probablement pour le procès en béatification de Giovanni Giovenale Ancina (1545-1604), oratorien, professeur de médecine et évêque de Saluces, qui sera canonisé bien plus tard, en 1890. « Per la molta servitù che la n.ra Congreg.ne ha sempre havuto con quella de' Padri della Chiesa Nuova di Roma in ogni tempo, ma singolarmente vivendo tra loro il glorioso S. Filippo Neri di quella Congreg.ne fondatore, habbiamo di quando in quando conversato con detti Padri, e tra gli altri conosciuto il R.mo Mons.r Giuvenale Ancina Vescovo poi di Saluzzo, del quale posso io in particolare far fede di haverlo conosciuto per huomo di singolare integrità, ardentissimo nel predicare la parola di Dio, osservant.mo della perfettione ch.tiana, e nel riprendere i vitij di zelo più che ordinario, inditij tutti molto chiari di haver fatto nella virtù un habito perfettissimo. Et in fede del vero ho sottoscritto la presente questo dì 6. Agosto 1622. Cesare Franciotti Sacerdote della Relig.ne della Madre di Dio ». Franciotti atteste ici de la sainteté de cet évêque, proche de Saint Philippe Neri. On notera d'ailleurs que Neri est canonisé le 12 mars 1622 par Grégoire XV qui a ainsi voulu ouvrir la porte à d'autres canonisations ou béatifications d'oratoriens. On suppose qu'Ancina est mort empoisonné. Papier anciennement mouillé, petits trous en marge. Cachet de collection du chateau Montfleury. Extraordaire document d'un saint homme témoignant de la sainteté d'un autre. [556]

Domenech was a missionary in Texas and Mexico and chaplain and almoner in the service of Maximilien Emperor of Mexico. He wrote a number of works on the American southwest and the American Indian including a rather unfortunate treatise which seriously discredited his scholarly abilities. This particular work is based on a number of sources including an earlier book Missionary Adventures in Texas and Mexico but it is chiefly a compilation from Pacific Railroad reports from which some of the plates were also taken. Other plates are lifted from the work of George Catlin. Parts of the text relate to Texas New Mexico California Utah Oregon Louisiana Minnesota &c. with some mention of Canada.
