Lüers, John H., Bishop of Fort Wayne, Fort Wayne, Indiana, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1865 October 18

Lüers received the 50 copies of Monsignor Dupanloup's book on, September 15th and he will give Purcell the amount when he comes, down. Lüers received a letter from Father Francis X. Weninger, saying his catechisms would shortly appear. He sent circulars to Lüers, clergy commanding them to introduce them. Lüers regards this, command as an insult, coming from a priest. The catechism is all right, for teachers or converts but not for children. He believes their next, council should discuss it. He could not be in Chicago last Sunday, because he had a church to bless, the third this month. :: II-5-c A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
