Callaert informs Lefevere of the discouraging outlook for a Catholic school. Very few Catholics are in favor of it; some who subscribe refuse to pay. Of the 200 Catholic families, about 45 have paid something; most of these are poor and have no children; those most able and with children refuse to pay. The Committee has resigned because of insults; they are called "the constables of the bishop." Callaert is in poor health and is thinking of returning home. Catholics are meeting to raise funds for a district-schoolhouse, a mile and a half from the church. He requests Lefevere to visit the parish and to confirm fifty persons. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
