Guggenberger, Father Anthony, St. Mary's, Ohio, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1874 November 23

The man about whom he wrote Purcell has decided to leave the woman he had taken as a wife and make his peace with God. It is difficult to discover whether her first husband was baptized as his whereabouts are unknown. She withdrew every concession made in favor of the baptism and education of her children. He asks permission to leave for 8 days to make his spiritual retreat. He will provide for a priest for Sunday. :: II-5-f A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
