Identifier: CDET III-2-k

Scope and Contents

Baroux has received Lefevere's letter of the 14th. He is very busy preparing a school and a schoolmaster. Chief Simgowa Sinagowa left for Washington Easter Sunday with Simon Pokagon and Isadore from Rush Lake. As soon as they return, the 5000 francs from Paris will be at Lefevere's disposition. Lefevere should inform Baroux if he wishes to leave the money with the Rush Lake Committee. Baroux consulted last week his confrere Father Isidore Anthony Lebel in Kalamazoo and found that he had no right to leave the money in the committee's hands. It was a great mistake of his, and he will repay it. The letter Lefevere received from Berard Des Glajeux does not contradict Baroux's report on his visit to France. A part of Baroux's letter was printed in the Annals of The Association of The Propagation of September 1863. There is no indelicacy in his conduct and no inconsistencies. In a short time Baroux will answer Lefevere's objections and send an inventory of his churches. Baroux was away for a week, the teacher came during his absence. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
