Scope and Contents

The Central Council of the Association of the Propagation has allotted the Detroit Diocese for 1865, 10,000 francs. Following custom, the last 500 francs will be withheld until the total annual receipts are in. The Council regrets not to have received any account of the present situation of Lefevere's diocese as regards resources and needs. They will be happy to receive an account of the apostolic work of his missionaries, of such a nature that it may be printed in the Annals; also something about the relation of Father Louis Baroux in order to correct an unfortunate impression. They ask that each year Lefevere list his indispensable requirements. Meantime, they have continued assistance for the sake of the young students at the Louvain seminary. Berard des Glajeux, president of the Council, has died after many years of unselfish service. ` P.S. A statistical table for estimating resources and needs of each Mission is enclosed no enclosure. ` A.L.S. French 3pp. 8vo. ` On the same paper:
