Andres, Father Francis Maria, Coshocton, Ohio, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1863 July 27

Mr. Baier, one of the best men of the congregation of St. Ann, offered him a house and garden not far from the church; he does not want any payment for the use of it. With Purcell's permission, Andres will remain in St. Ann and try again all the means for the spiritual welfare of those congregations. Without that house he was in the necessity of asking for another place. He hopes also to get a school and teacher for Coshocton and Wills-Creek. The congregation of St. Ann is willing to enlarge the church. :: II-5-b A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
