Despite her tender age and persecution by her Father, brother and sister has persevered in the Catholic religion. She asks Lefevere to place her in an orphan asylum in Detroit for her health and instruction in her Faith. Her Father is willing to give a dollar a week for her support. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
