Schwerz received Lefevere's letter of August 11 through his brother. He is much gratified at hearing that a Catholic church for Germans is flourishing in Detroit. He sends through his brother a cross destined for the use of the Bishop of Detroit and prays God that it may be borne before him in pontifical procession for many years. Lefevere is right as to the Joffroy Foundation ; its periods will soon commence for his diocese but he wishes Lefevere would send him a letter for the Nuncio at Vienna concerning it and Schwarz will deliver it. Religion there appears to be at a standstill since the Revolution. A European revolution is a subversion of everything; nothing remains sacred and now they must see the triumphal reception in the United States of the principal leader Louis Kossuth of the Revolution. Had he succeeded in Hungery it would have been the downfall of the Catholic religion there. :: III-2-h A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
