 This brochure was aimed at Aubert, a married priest appointed by Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Gobel curé of St. Augustin.Brugière's preaching placed him in the hands of the revolutionary tribunal, and it was while he was imprisoned he wrote to his followers the "Lettre d'un cure du fond de sa prison à ses paroissiens" (1793).Set at liberty, he continued his pastoral ministrations in spite of the charge of treasonable conduct, a dangerous thing in those days.
