Vanpaemel just returned from a trip to Muskegon, Michigan and other places. He read Lefevere's letter of August 29 to the congregation at Muskegon, and they were pleased to hear that they were to have a priest. A building committee was appointed; they made a subscription of more than $200 for a house which will be built immediately. Muskegon has grown: French are leaving, Irish and Germans are increasing. Some Catholics in Grand Haven, Michigan want a church. Subscription was started; about $250 from persons of other denominations; a Mr. Albee subscribed $100. The committee will try to be ready to build next spring. It is absolutely impossible for Vanpaemel to collect the $90 of Father Charles Deceuninck . He has no right to trouble Lefevere about it. The children of several settlements are being prepared for First Communion and Confirmation. If Lefevere will be kind enough to designate a Sunday towards the end of October or the beginning of November for confirmation, they will try to have the German church ready for dedication and a Pontifical High Mass. :: III-2-i A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
