Van Erp, Father Francis J., Hudson, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1859 October 25

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-i

Scope and Contents

Van Erp finds it strange to date his letter from Hudson instead of Grand Rapids, but he is pleased with his new parish. He has rented a house ¾ mile from the church, and asks permission to have a chapel in the house and to perform religious functions there. The church debt is $500. The people are a simple, good people, but there is some dissatisfaction among the Medina people. A footnote in Lefevere's handwriting states that permission was granted for one year. :: III-2-i A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
