DeNeve, Father John, Louvain, Belgium, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1863 April 30

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-j

Scope and Contents

DeNeve thanks Lefevere for his letter of March 10; he has taken steps to carry out his wishes. Mr. Certes has promised to honor Lefevere's draft; then DeNeve will write to Rumbelle? Or Dumortier. Father Gustave Limpens was ordained the second day of Easter week having obtained the necessary dispensations. He will leave with Father Louis Vanden driessche and perhaps Father Louis Baroux. Vanden driessche can be placed wherever Lefevere sees fit; he believes Limpens should not be placed somewhere alone nor given an opportunity to take advantage of his French sermon. Father Bernard G. Soffers is not to demand it of him. DeNeve believes Limpens will make a very good priest. The American College at Louvain continues to go along well; many priests are about to leave; they will bring all the news. :: III-2-j A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
