Scope and Contents In his last letter, not yet answered, Schreiner made complaint against Father Joseph Kindekens for having interfered with the jurisdiction of his mission. Further experience at Berlin shows that he will never be able to induce the members of the mission to comply with their duties toward their pastor if Kindekens supports their opposition. Four months ago he informed Kindekens that he had appointed Father Ferdinand Allgayer to attend the cases of necessity in his mission yet Kindekens...

Scope and Contents Is the commandment of the Church not to marry without a priest to be kept under very great difficulties? He asks for authority in such a case in the northernmost parts of his mission where he calculates to go after a few weeks. He also asks for permission for Mary Haughy and James O'Hanlon who wish to be married although the death of Mary's former husband has not been ascertained. Schreiner also asks some help from the collections made for the Propagation of the Faith so that they could...

Scope and Contents Schreiner received Lefevere's letter of instructions about the things Schreiner had asked and in which he is told that he has no right to complain against the people for non-support, nor to distinguish between salary and alms-deeds. Lefevere justifies the people's non-support since they know Schreiner has money. As long as he has done his duty, he does not care if Lefevere supposes him a liar. Casuals are not salary. Though he is not treated like another priest of the diocese, he still...

Scope and Contents Having been permitted to stay in his mission, Schreiner will use the permission by writing Lefevere to exonerate himself from charges against him as contained in Lefevere's letter to him. If Lefevere is persuaded of the truth of the charges, then Schreiner can do nothing but accede to Lefevere's indignation. But Lefevere has no witnesses to the truth but has only hearsay, and therefore, he hopes Lefevere will hesitate to decline the charges until Lefevere hears the reply of the delinquent....

Scope and Contents Being urged by Father Joseph Kindekens, Schreiner left for his missions to fix arrangements. The German congregation at Wright is to have one service a month and promised $85; the Irish at Berlin were granted one service a month and promised $142. The mixed and mostly French Congregation at Muskegon does not want a priest. The men are gone for lumber and will not return before summer; the women do not promise any payment. Grand Haven wants services once a month but arrangements could not be...

Scope and Contents

To make Lefevere believe the malignity of Father Ferdinand Allgayer, Schreiner encloses the petition of his few partisans which Allgayer made himself and which he, through forgetfulness, left in the house. Schreiner begs Lefevere to punish Allgayer for his scandals. Lefevere knows how Allgayer complained against Father Martin Marco.

Scope and Contents In spite of Lefevere's order, Schreiner feels so outraged that, upon the people's wish, he has to reply to Lefevere against his defenders. Following Lefevere's order Father Ferdinand Allgayer had to move to his new missions immediately after Ash Wednesday. He left for Wisconsin for a few days, leaving the house keys and his furniture still in the priest's house with the housekeeper who would not give Schreiner the keys. The committee threatens to go to court to keep Schreiner out. Allgayer...

The scandals continued by Father Ferdinand Allgayer could be stopped if Lefevere would show who is master. The one who was always talking against Father Martin Marco is acting as Marco did in his opinion. Schreiner is under the impression he will have to help himself. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents In Lefevere's last letter he wanted him to show great patience and forbearance, and by no means change the Committee. The result is that the congregation is satisfied with Schreiner except the committee and two others, one of whom was engaged by Father Joseph Kindekens to sing in his church "in contemptum proprii sacerdotis." All the congregation wishes the committee's removal. The Committee refuses to collect money for church insurance and church equipment, and Schreiner just now has no...

Schreiner asks the removal of the church committee. They refuse to let him have the part of the collection made for the support of the altar forcing him into debt. Finkler and Schenkelberg who keep the books said they had used all the income for Father Ferdinand Allgayer whose note is not due until July. Finkler, Schenkelberg, Hauser and Amend are the committee men to be removed. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents The people in the town of Wright would prefer that the priest should own the parish house, for then he would take better care of it. If the priest is, after a year, taken away, the people would want back half of the money. The people in Berlin, Michigan are a "curious kind of saints." They never support him, nor the church, never fetch him to the church, won't remain after Mass when asked to, never sent their children to catechism, although he asked them - "in a word they never care about my...
