He reports to Lefevere on what happened in Dorr . He found the people of Selam Salem in a state of schism and revolt. All but a few submitted to the conditions of reconciliation. Having studied the origin and continuation of their disobedience, he proposed the following terms for their confession: they will forget the past but must join the congregation of Dorr as if they had just arrived from Germany. They will rent pews and do their part for all future needs. Contrary to some Dorr trustees they will not be charged money for the benefit of Dorr's church. They will be placed on the same footing as the people of Byron so that the priest occasionally may say Mass in their church, etc. In his judgment, this should satisfy Lefevere. The majority of the people were misled by obstinate leaders, and by the fault of some priests - some incidents he will relate to Lefevere when he sees him. If parents would be even of the worst disposition the poor youth is lost. Weninger suppressed with God's help, the great schism in St. Louis Church in Buffalo and in Trenton, New Jersey. His way of acting with the men of Salem was the only practicable way, and he asks Lefevere to write the pastor Father William Herwig to follow in his footsteps, using all possible kindness and indulgence. The women as usual were harder cases than the men. The pastor is a man of good will but too young to handle such an affair. :: III-2-l A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
