Purcell, Archbishop John Baptist, Cincinnati, Ohio, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1863 January 22

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-j

Scope and Contents

Lefevere's check for 1,000 francs will be duly honored. Purcell borrowed the money to pay for the passage of three German ecclesiastics to the country. It seems to him that faculties had been given until revocation but he will look at the documents and do as Lefevere suggests. Bishop John Baptist Malou of Bruges is still battling with his diocese. What a terrible picture the Paris "Monde" draws of the Freemasons and anti-Catholics in Belgium. As Lefevere must have prayed for his own Cathedral mission, Purcell asks him to pray for theirs which begins the first Sunday of Lent. :: III-2-j A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
