Hailandiere has no intention of showing discontent with Lefevere in this letter. He will show none and made no pretext. What he wanted him to say is an object of pure administration. He opposes this gathering together of Brothers and Sisters and desires to prevent it. If he proposes Madison for the Sisters of Holy Cross it is because people demand that they be received in the diocese. He is not opposed to the Sisters of father Edward F. Sorin and has no objection that they settle outside the diocese. More important of him are the contents of a letter he sent Lefevere the receipt of which Lefevere has not acknowledged. In it he said he asked Rome for a coadjutor and presented three candidates: Fathers Martin John Spalding of Louisville; Charles White of Baltimore; and George Goodwine of Boston. He prefers Spalding for several reasons. He made the presentation on the advice of Bishop Benedict Joseph Flaget and with the consent of Bishop Guy Ignatius Chabrat . He asks Lefevere to give his advice on the matter to the Perfect of Propaganda. :: III-2-h A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
