Koch, Peter G., Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1861 June 20

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-j

Scope and Contents

Koch has been called upon professionally to extend aid to an unprotected female who is being persecuted: Mother Angela Joseph McKey. The two white-veiled Sisters of St. Bridget have left their quarters, staying with the priest, Father Thomas Brady, and also with a Mr. Courtney. Brady with abettors threaten "the old mother" with arrest unless she gives up part of the money she now holds on deposit which she earned to support the two novices. She has come to Koch for advice and he promises to defend her. He fears the fast growing scandal will bring worse times than when Father Hugh Quigley was here. :: III-2-j A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
