Harrington, Michael, and others, Kenockee, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1866 February 21

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-k

Scope and Contents

Lefevere's children were unaware that they had said anything to injure any man, especially a Catholic priest. They thought they were doing their duty at the request of the congregation. It was not their intention to complain but to ask for another priest. They are now called robbers by Father Lawrence Kilroy, that they smuggled a priest from Sarnia to assist them to deprive Kilroy of his mission. Kilroy has now locked up the church for a year. In the name of 300 families they are willing to abide by Lefevere's decision should he send a strange priest to investigate matters. They are willing to support a priest decently. Signed by Michael Harrington, Patrick Dohany, Patrick Cogley, Patrick Dunigan, Patrick Healy, and P. Kennedy. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 1p. 4to.
