Scope and Contents

Joos supposes Lefevere has read the correspondence between Father Isidore Lebel and the Governor Austin Blair of the State about an asylum for children of soldiers. Such a plan is expensive and dangerous to the spiritual interests of Catholic children. Joos wanted Mr. O'Connor to make some suggestions to the governor but he has left for Philadelphia. Joos encloses his letter to the Governor for Lefevere's criticisms no enclosure. Joos prays for a house for boys of all ages to be built in Detroit. In Belgium there is a contract between the poormaster and the pastor for the support of the orphans in the convent. ` P.S. It is 39 years since Joos became a Christian. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
