Passerat, C.SS.R. Father Joseph, Vienna, Austria, to Father Frederick Rese, Cincinnati, Ohio, 1832 _____
Scope and Contents
Passerat offers condolences on the death of Bishop Edward Dominic Fenwick and promises prayers for the repose of his soul. The letters they have received from the Redemptorists in America are very pleasing to them and increased the desire on the part of the younger members of the community to come to America. The plan of establishing a house for missionaries pleases especially the Leopoldine Association officers, and they allotted 5,000 florins c.m. for that project. Passerat begs Rese not to let them establish the house at Green Bay, which is too far from civilization. It might be permitted that they establish a few priests there but it would be imprudent to establish there the mother mission. He begs Rese to see that they establish the house at Detroit. He recommends his confreres to Rese's protection assuring him that their only object is the salvation of souls. :: III-2-g A.L.S. French 2pp. 8vo.
