Passerat, C.SS.R., Father Joseph, Vienna, Austria, to Bishop Edward Dominic Fenwick, O.P., of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1832 October 26

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-g

Scope and Contents

Passerat has no doubt of the vocation of the Redemptorists he has sent to work in the American missions but knowing how resolutions change when faced with difficulties the assurances of Fenwick are not small to him. If, as the Leopoldine Association and their Society desire these Redemptorists success in founding a house where they can return to repair the damages to their souls and bodies after their trips on the missions and work in accordance with the rule, Passerat will be able to supply good subject among those who desire to work in America. He does not hesitate therefore to authorize Father Simon Saenderl to acquire land proper to this project. He showed Saenderl's letter to the Association and within a few days they granted instead of 10,000 florins for Fenwick, 5,000 to Fenwick and 5,000 to the Redemptorists. If Saenderl goes into debt on this project, Passerat hopes to be able to pay. :: III-2-g L.S. French 3pp. 8vo.
