Hendjes, John and others, Salem, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1865 March 14
Scope and Contents
Anton Weber, returning from his talk with Lefevere, stopped at Grand Rapids to see Father Bechet, Father Henry Beerhorst? to tell him Lefevere wished the church to be as centrally located as possible. Bechet said it was too late as the building was under construction. Consequently, Catholics at Salem have cut lumber for a new church 40 by 55 feet, and are ready to let the contract. Meetings at Dorr, Salem, and Bayrin ended in disagreements. They ask Lefevere to buy them church articles, for which they will send him money. ` Signed by Hendjes, Adam Endres, Nicolaus Kreiser, J____ Metzer, Joseph Shumacker, and Nikolaus Anna?. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
