Letter from Joseph d'Oliveira to Joseph Vanderkuylen

1946

Thanking him for his letter; lamenting his recent illness and congratulating him on soon becoming a grandfather; regretting he cannot supply, as requested, an article for his son-in-law's paper but offering to send a 110-page unedited manuscript; describing difficulties attaining posts in the Congo and deeming him "too pro-Negro for the Colony"; describing conditions in Leopoldville; and remarking on various facets of colonization there and nearby.
