Farrell, John B., Bishop of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1862 October 11

He is in great need of a few German priests and applies to Purcell with the hope that he can do something for the poor Germans in his diocese. A Franciscan, Father Archangelus Gstir O.F.M., from Cincinnati has been laboring for about 18 months in the diocese. If the community to which he belongs could be induced to send three other fathers, it would be for the greater glory of God. :: II-5-b A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
