McCloskey, William, Bishop of Louisville, Louisville, Kentucky, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1875 August 30

Father Joseph De Vries, a priest suspended by McCloskey for disobedience, told a clergyman in Louisville that Purcell had advised De Vries to get all the names he could to his document making charges against McCloskey and that if he called at Purcell's house he himself would sign it. He told the informant that he though the story was false. :: II-5-f A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.
