Father Czakert answers Bishop Rese's letter so late because the many and sudden changes have made it impossible to write anything definite. Czakert will remain in Norwalk and Father Francis X. Tschenhens will attend to all those places which Bishop John Baptist Purcell had indicated. Mr. Morgan and Brother Joseph should make their novitiate in Norwalk, but Czakert does not know if that is possible for both. It seems as if the Redemptorists would have to leave Green Bay altogether, at least next year. The burden of the school and the fact that it is almost impossible to find a livelihood there have induced them to that resolution. Czakert used to be quite for Green Bay, but since he heard the news he has changed his mind. However he cannot deny that he has still a liking for that place if only the conditions would be a little better. Czakert is very sorry that Rese had such trouble with their Superior Father Joseph Prost, C.SS.R.. He is convinced that the bad influence of different persons greatly increased his suspicions and fear. That justifies his behavior greatly. Czakert himself is still in doubt about different things, but he hopes that this dissension with their Superior will not make him ill-disposed towards the rest of them. :: III-2-g A.L.S.
