Whipple, I.H.M., Sister Mary, Vienna, Michigan, to Father Edward Joos, Monroe, Michigan, 1859 May 31

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-i

Scope and Contents

Sister Mary acknowledges Joos' letter of this morning. Her conscience forbids her to accept the Bishop's Peter Paul Lefevere views. As Mother Mary Theresa Maxis , their Foundress, of the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary still has authority over her, she cannot recognize two lawful Superiors; she cannot consent to break off all correspondence with those who have formed her to the religious life. This is her conscience and nothing can change it. :: III-2-i A.L.S. 2pp. 32mo.
