Henni has just received a letter from Father Otto Charles Skolla O.S.F. stating, to Henni's surprise, that Skolla was at LaPointe, Wisconsin Territory having been conducted there by Father Frederic Baraga . Henni does not like this arrangement and is astonished to learn that Skolla is there after Baraga had already written that he himself intended to return to LaPointe with the intention of opening a new mission at Fond du Lac, Wisconsin Territory . As an excuse for being at LaPointe Skolla says the presbytery and church at L'Anse, Michigan are two small for both of them. When Henni had heard from Lefevere, at Mackinac, Michigan that Lefevere intended to send Skolla to L'Anse, Henni had granted him the ordinary faculties, should Skolla visit any part of his diocese. But Skolla now insinuates that he is to get a release from Lefevere. Henni would like to hear from Lefevere himself what Lefevere intends to do. Henni prefers a short visit by Baraga once in twelve months to having Skolla all the time at LaPointe. He never authorized Baraga's being replaced at LaPointe by any other without his special consent even in case he should be compelled to abandon his first mission. Before Henni writes to Skolla he wants to find out whether Lefevere authorized Skolla to stay at LaPointe for a short time or whether the plan is Skolla's or Baraga's. If Lefevere thinks that step proper or necessary until all is better fixed at L'Anse, Henni will leave Skolla where he is for a time. In a postscript Henni adds that he has returned his exeat to young Doyle as he is rather a spoiled child. Henni received him at the request of Father Martin Kundig who, as Henni should have known, is guided more by his heart than by his head. :: III-2-h A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
