Kindekens, Father Joseph, Ypsilanti, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1861 May 25

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-j

Scope and Contents

Kindekens offers his resignation to Lefevere who, he states, blamed him for bad conditions of the parish. Lefevere, without consulting him, announced to the congregation that they take things in their own hands and have a committee appointed. The result is that the people refuse to support the parish and his pay is almost nothing. After 15 years in the Diocese, he feels he has not been treated justly. He requests permission to remain with his brother, Father Peter Kindekens until matters are arranged. :: III-2-j A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
