Since it is the intention of Rese and of the leaders of the Leopoldine Association to establish a house for Redemptorists missionaries and since Green Bay is in no way connected with that design, Passerat has written to his confreres to accept possession of the house at Detroit, and to apply to that purpose the 5000 florins which the leaders of the Association have added to the 1000 florins they had already destined for them. From the letters he has received, Passerat believes that Father Simon Saenderl has shown himself a mediocre missionary among the Indians. He asks Rese then to have him erect a house for their community in Detroit or wherever else is suitable. This he says, will be best for the salvation of souls. In Austria this will be more agreeable to the Leopoldine Association and to the diocese of Cincinnati also. Passerat has several confreres who wish to go to the American missions if Rese has need of them. Saenderl is to join his two confreres at Detroit and Passerat promises to give further aid to the diocese of Cincinnati. :: III-2-g A.L.S. French 2pp. 8vo.
