DeNeve rejoices at the news of Lefevere's letter of December 26, that he is to visit the American College of Louvain. John Reichenbach has arrived in good health, as also James Pulcher. DeNeve regrets they have been in an American seminary since it will be harder to impress them with the necessity of turning over a leaf upon entering a seminary. He made "restitution" to Bishop Frederic Baraga, and charged the 500 francs for traveling expenses for Father Francis Van Der Bom to Lefevere's accounts. DeNeve can wait for the money until Lefevere comes if he does not have the next house for which DeNeve offered 37,000 francs. Lefevere has at the College John Busche who will be ready in September, Henry Delbaere for September, Henry Beerhorst and Bernard J. Wermers will be ready for next year, and Francis P. Flanagan, Pulcher, and Reichenbach who will need 3 years at least. Busche pays for his board. A few days ago DeNeve received Cardinal Alexander Barnabo's letter applying for priests for the Antilles Islands. Archbishop Joachim Louis Gonin wishes to be a patron of the American College. DeNeve asks for some good arguments. DeNeve will write Archbishop Martin John Spalding about it. The Holy Father has granted some of the indulgences asked for a plenary at the first Communion in the College, and in the Mission. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 2pp. 4to.
