Scope and Contents Vincennes, Indiana, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan ` Hailandière asks why he should be offended by Lefevere's silence. They should be rather consoled that they have offended neither God nor a brother. He is astonished at the contrarities in the path of Lefevere but the previous history of poor Detroit could not make things otherwise and Lefevere has the weapons and must defend the kingdom of God. The bishops of flourishing dioceses must also have their trials, such as...

Sorin and has no objection that they settle outside the...
