Baroux, Father Louis, S.S.C., Silver Creek, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1852 July 10
Scope and Contents
Because of Lefevere's silence, Baroux will repeat the subject of his last letter. All makes him presume that Lefevere is opposed to the Indians buildingaa church at Brushcreek, Michigan ; doubtless because Sinegowa, contrary to Lefevere's advice, separated from Pokagan and perhaps because against Lefevere's orders, Sinegowa made the contract in his name. Last year Father Edward Sorin, C.S.C., made an advantageous offer to Sinegowa but he declined it. Sorin is still disposed to procure the same advantages for them, but will they accept? The Protestants work to pervert them. Baroux asks permission to bless the cemetery at Pokagan which he enlarged. :: III-2-h A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
