 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-l

Scope and Contents

He is happy to learn of Lefevere's happy return to the diocese and to report to him that he had obtained $3400.86 from Paris Association of the Propagation . Does Lefevere wish him to take in a larger number of students or is it allright to credit the sum to students already received for the year 1867-68? McSweeny, who served Lefevere's Mass at Roulers, wishes to be adopted for Detroit. He has received a man by the name of Paul Camillus Maes whom he is going to enroll for Detroit; he hopes resources will not fail in order to have a greater number of priests. He has placed McManus with Bishop William Henry Elder . Adolphe Certes writes that the date is near for the first installment to the bishops. If Lefevere consents to take in more students, DeNeve asks for a draft to pay partial expenses for the school year of 1867-68 at the American College at Louvain, if not, to write immediately in order to assign them to other bishops. Father Peter Kindekens is with them and they hope for his recovery. :: III-2-l A.L.S. French 2pp. 12mo.
