Identifier: CMMA I-2-b

Scope and Contents

Benoit tells McMaster that their common friend, the confessor fides in Switzerland is still on his rampage. This "confessor" has forged a letter of recommendation, supposedly written by Benoit to Father P. Hennaert, Vicar General of the Bishop of Detroit. Fr. Hennaert was suspicious of him and upon receiving Benoit's answer dismissed him. He should have arrested him as being a forger and for procuring money under false pretenses. Fr. Benoit asks McMaster to print a second article on the whereabouts of the scoundrel to prevent others from being duped. :: I-2-b A.L.S. 2pp. 12 mo
