 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-h

Scope and Contents

Miss Hulbert, a resident of Detroit until 4 or 5 years ago, but a stranger to Bishop Lefevere, writes to him as her spiritual guide and asks to be allowed to become a Sister of St. Clair Seminary Detroit . She is now a member of the Episcopal church, joining in 1838, but upon reading a book she was induced to believe Roman Catholics not as bad as represented and after further reading she is now a Catholic in heart. She has not openly declared it for fear of opposition from friends and relatives. She asks Lefevere to use the utmost secrecy until she has commenced her novitiate. She will leave one month from this time and would like to go directly to Detroit if Lefevere permits her. :: III-2-h A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
