Wood, James Frederick, Bishop, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1859 August 6

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-i

Scope and Contents

Wood did not know of the affair until Bishop John Nepomucene Neumann C.SS.R. told him last night. Neumann considered himself blameless but Wood suggested Neumann write Lefevere a letter of explanation. This example will show who are the confidants and coadjutors of the bishop in preference to the one sent by Rome. He trembles to think of what interpretation will be made when people discover their daughters have been sent to a place under a mulatto superior. He does not think we are yet ripe for such an anomaly. He is clear of all participation. :: III-2-i A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
