Baraga asks of Badin to forward the enclosed letter by post to Bishop Frederick Rese and to pay for the postage and to add the amount to his bill. He is addressing this letter to Father Badin, because he supposes that Bishop Rese is not in Detroit. He also asks Badin to go to the bank with the check which Rese had sent him and cash it and send him the money at a good opportunity, that is, either by Mr. Godfroi who will soon come to Grand River or by Mr. Campau. Furthermore Baraga asks Badin to buy for him from this money by Steavens 4 pounds of iron wire number 20 and have it sent to him. Also Father Badin should take out of this money all that Baraga owes him for the letters., P.S. Baraga asks what has happened to his Missal, which he had given to Mr. Wels Wells to have bound which Wells should have delivered to Father Badin. :: III-2-g A.L.S. French 2pp. 8vo.
