Some rascal from Detroit asked De Preiter for money. When he refused he has threatened with accusation in the Detroit papers for bad transactions. As De Preiter next week is going to visit sick persons for their Easter duty he will have no time to read papers; if anything comes up he hopes Lefevere will vindicate him. All is right in his mission, the church will be built. If its committee visits him would Lefevere suggest a brick building with slate and copper cover. Since the great fire here, he fears the rascals would destroy it. His right arm is much better, so he can say Mass every day. He asks a remembrance on the altar on Ascension, the day of his first Mass. :: III-2-l A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
