Kundig, Father Martin, Detroit, Michigan, to Mr. _____ Meldrum, Saginaw, Michigan, 1842 October 5
Scope and Contents
Being absent from Detroit for four months on a mission in the Territory of Wisconsin, Kundig could not attend to Meldrum's letter. Upon his return he was informed of Mrs. Meldrum's coming to town. He visited her, having Saginaw on his mind since his mission there last spring. The prospect of beginning a church in Saginaw, and Meldrum's interest in it made Kundig anxious to address him. Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere is making arrangements in Detroit which will naturally extend through the diocese. They have been neglected but it will be different in the future. The Bishop will visit them next spring especially if they lay a foundation for the church in Saginaw. Kundig hopes the officers will continue to take interest and prove worthy. He asks how many families would move to Meldrum's quarters if a church were built in his neighborhood. In Detroit papers. :: III-2-g A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
