Marco, Father Martin, Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1858 April 12
Scope and Contents
He informs Lefevere of the sorrowful truth as regards Dawn and Dorr and Silans; it was some sacrifice for him. He will never prove weak in doing his duty, but courageous for the glory of religion and the salvation of souls. He hopes that the punishment imposed on these places will produce consoling results. Every week new German Catholics arrive to strengthen his flock. Easter Monday John Cordes made public penance and on April 11th, 19 children made their First Communion at Sarney; a young Protestant man has entered the Church. Father Francis X. Weninger S.J. has promised him to visit him for a mission. :: III-2-i A.L.S. French 4pp. 8vo.
