Moutard, Father Cornelius, Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1857 March 11
Scope and Contents
Moutard has just returned from his mission, Gratten, Michigan and found Lefevere's letters. "He", Father W. Quigley , received on these rates $154.00. They told Moutard in Gratten that a few days previous to leaving Gratten, "he" stated from the altar how much he had received. Moutard understands "he" collected at least $40.00 in Gratten and above $60 in the Rapids. "He" gave $12.00 to Mr. Giles but owes Giles more than that. Moutard knows nothing of the money due by Thomas Mallone. "He" pocketed and sold things to which he had no claim, among others $9.00 belonging to the Altar Society. What Talbott has in his possession does not amount to $74.00. "He" is a complete rascal. Moutard has killed him completely in the estimation of the people of Gratten. All Moutard asks is a mission on March 29. He will write to Father Francis Krutil trusting that Lefevere will put Krutil up to the thing. Moutard asks a dispensation from the third degree of relationship for James H. and Mary D. so that they may marry. P.S. He has received the notes but no money. Enclosure:
