Koch, Peter G., Grand Rapids, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1861 September 17
Scope and Contents
The Church suit has been settled by the Circuit Court in Lefevere's favor. Father Thomas Brady is utterly beaten, must pay a big bill of cost and repent of his many sins which he won't do. The church may now be consecrated. Mrs. Koch is painting a picture, Jacob's Dream, and wishes to send it to Lefevere, but hesitates to do so; would the bishop write his acceptance? The Irish Regiment is to be organized, with Father Brady as chaplain. Father Martin Marco is being persecuted by some German rebels under the disguise of religion and hypocrisy. The idea of dragging a poor clergyman into court is, for such a trivial cause, a shame. :: III-2-j A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
