Zorn, Father Seraphim, Little Traverse, Michigan, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1868 March 18

 Item
Identifier: CDET III-2-l

Scope and Contents

Zorn acknowledges Lefevere's letter with enclosed Faculties and Constitutions, etc., and Father N. L. Sifferath received his letter. The deed for the church-lot in Duncan is in the name of Bishop Frederic Baraga of Marquette. He had given zorn full power to act about the church affair in Duncan; there is question of which of the two places to choose for the church-site. Zorn was at Cross Village last week and in the Convent of Father John B. Weikamp . Among his converts is Mr. Roberts, a former Protestant minister from Indiana, also some innocent young boys who might become priests. A dock for steamboats, now building at Cross Village, will cause Little Traverse to dwindle and Weikamp soon could open a boarding school. :: III-2-l A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
