McKey, Mother Angela Joseph, Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1861 May 29
Scope and Contents
Although she has had no reply to her letter to Lefevere of 10 or 12 days previous, unforeseen affairs explain this letter. The two novices of the Sisters of St. Bridget have been acting against her wishes - going out without permission, staying at the priest's house for supper, etc., refusing to give her an explanation. She expresses indignation over the kind of training for subjects for a religious institute their two novices are getting, blames Father Thomas Brady for putting these girls in public to give the impression that they alone are capable of doing anything. After 20 years engaged in such affairs in their convent in Ireland, Mother thinks she is capable of doing the same in the Rapids. :: III-2-j A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
