Allgayer, Father Ferdinand, Muskegon, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1865 November 28
Scope and Contents
Allgayer has been waiting anxiously the last 7 weeks for the priest Lefevere promised to send to take his place. He is in poor health, unable to attend his out-missions. In Muskegon he can do nothing since the congregation did not finish the church. They refused to support him until the church is finished. Besides the congregation refuses to give the deed to the new property since Lefevere has once before mortgaged the church property, which mortgage they say they will never redeem. Allgayer asks to be relieved before winter and to go to a milder climate. He has learned that two or more priests have recently arrived, one of whom, he presumes, was mentioned in Lefevere's letter of October 10, as designated to take his place, in order to give the Jubilee in the missions before the end of the year. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
