Lefevere, Bishop Peter Paul, Detroit, Michigan, to Father J.T. Stephen, Ann Arbor, Michigan, 1865 December 18

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-k

Scope and Contents

Lefevere lists 7 sources of information from reliable persons, of the widespread scandal caused by Stephen's drinking. Some people in Detroit and Ann Arbor are quite sarcastic in their talk about Stephen's pretended complaint of inflammatory rheumatism. Because of the complaints and scandal, Lefevere withdraws all faculties to perform any sacerdotal functions within the Detroit Diocese. This prohibition is under pain of suspension to be incurred by the very fact of Stephen's disobeying it. :: III-2-k A.L.S. Copy 2pp. Folio
