Callaert, Father Desiderius, Monroe, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1860 July 19
Scope and Contents
Everything turned out well at the blessing of the corner stone in Stonycreek . The collection amounted to $146. Some new German families moved in on account of the new church. Lefevere knows how difficult it is to build a church when everything must be collected among the people and an insignificant accident may destroy the union among them. He loses too much time by going from one place to another, he has 300 families to attend 9 or 10 miles from Monroe. Under the circumstances he believes he should stay in Stonycreek. He would have accommodations in a small house they would build and he would take Rafter's boy with him to prepare meals. :: III-2-j A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
