Spalding, Bishop Martin John, Louisville, Kentucky, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1861 June 19

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-j

Scope and Contents

Spalding asks Lefevere to read and approve his enclosed letter written at Lefevere's suggestion to Father Peter Kindekens no enclosure. Cardinal Alexander Barnabo acknowledged the receipt of their joint letter to the Propaganda stating that their former letter was never received. The Holy See will now cheerfully approve of the American College at Louvain, and will immediately grant privileges which Father John DeNeve has asked. Times are so very uncertain, he does not know whether he can accept Lefevere's invitation to visit him this summer. He asks prayers for his nephew who was drowned while bathing at Cincinnati last week. He extends best regards to Father Peter Hennaert. :: III-2-j A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
