Purcell, Archbishop John Baptist, Cincinnati, Ohio, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1861 March 23

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-j

Scope and Contents

Purcell answers Lefevere's letter of March 16, and thanks him for permitting Father Peter Hennaert to act as secretary for the Provincial Council. He has long since learned to appreciate all his worth. He is sending next Monday a copy of the Questiones. Father Hugh Quigley wrote from a farm near Springfield, Illinois another most impertinent letter, telling Purcell the Cardinal had just written to him again and has commanded Purcell to judge his case. Purcell's letter to Quigley has silenced him, but Purcell requests Lefevere to obtain from all the places Quigley has been in this country, facts about Quigley's character. Did Lefevere lose the lawsuit involving much property? If Lefevere lost it was not Lefevere's fault. :: III-2-j A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
