Wood, Cornelius, Teutonville, Michigan, to Father Peter Hennaert, Detroit, Michigan, 1870 January 14
Scope and Contents
Wood has partially made a contract for land for a Catholic school. Father Francis Xavier Pourret Pourett will never enter the church in Teutonville. In Deerfield he drove James McKoen out of the church. He has two farms, and sells his produce from store to store at least once a week in Teuton. Pourett went to the Bishop and stopped the priest of Pontiac from coming. The trustees saw the Bishop who gave them permission to build the church and promised to give a priest between Deerfield and Teuton. Wood asks Hennaert to keep Pourett away. Oceola and Brighton are able to support a priest, as Teuton and Deerfield can. :: III-2-l A.L.S. 2pp. 18mo.
