Dwenger, Joseph, Bishop of Fort Wayne, Fort Wayne, Indiana, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1873 October 15

According to Purcell's desire Dwenger sends the very words of Cardinal Alexander Barnabo regarding the Sisters of Holy Cross . The passage in Latin indicates that since the Sisters have been under the Archbishop since 1869 and since Purcell has not made a report they are to remain in that status. He would send the letter but it contains his faculties and he wants to keep it. He does not desire the sisters under his authority but just to know the state of affairs. :: II-5-f A.L.S. 1p. 8vo.
