Lefevere will receive for his missions and for the pious institutions of the diocese of Detroit from the Leopoldine Association bank drafts to the amount of 4 million Austrian florins or 372 English pounds. In this sum are contained gifts destined for certain missionaries which he designates in Austrian money: 500 florins for Father Frederick Baraga, in L'Anse, 100 florins for Father Franz Pierz in Little Traverse Bay, 50 florins for Father George Godez in Westphalia, and 50 florins for Father Andrew Viszoczky in Grand Rapids, Milde expects to receive an acknowledgment of the receiving of these sums. He has waited long for a report on the condition of the diocese for the information of their churchmen, since such information is very necessary.
