 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-g

Scope and Contents

Kenrick is happy that the affairs of Detroit are likely to be settled to Lefevere's satisfaction; he thinks that the Sacred Congregation should be informed of the actual state of things, and that Lefevere should seek from Bishop Frederick Résé the most ample kind of power of attorney with regard to Résé's real and personal estate in Detroit. If Lefevere gets the power of attorney he can consult with legal authority about seeking the return of church property now in other hands. Kenrick advises on taking possession of Church property. He sympathizes with Lefevere in his afflictions but is confident that consolations await him. He has not heard of C.C. _____ for many years. P.S. Kenrick has just given Father B _____ McCabe his exeat. If he comes to Detroit, Kenrick says he is imprudent and inconsistent and solicitous about money. Bishop Joseph Rosati arrived safe at Port au Prince Haiti. :: III-2-g A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
