Bandai, F., Bishop and Vicar, Cologne, Germany, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1874 June

The Archbishop of Cologne has sent to Purcell a letter concerning the death of John Mathias Fischer begging that Purcell obtain the necessary testimony of witnesses for the defensor vinculi. Nothing having been received in reply they have begun to fear that the letter was not received. Since the widow Fischer is in grave need, Bandai sends a copy of the interrogations asking that the answers be sent as soon as possible. :: II-5-f L.S. Latin 1p. 8vo.
