Scope and Contents De Lande thanks Hudson for the article on Father John Bapst, S.J.. It is true but there was more to it. In the early days of her conversion Bapst related to De Lande this dream: He thought he came to a land where there were people of copper color and high cheek bones. He remained among these people and became attached to them. Within twenty-four hours Bapst had received orders to start for a mission in America. A woman he had seen in his dream ministered to his wants during all his...

Scope and Contents The statistics Clarke sent to de Meaux are precious. De Meaux wants to know if the numbers Clarke gives represent the value of the church edifices or the value of all the properties owned by the Roman Catholic Church. During his stay in New York, de Meaux was shown the Protectory and he expressed his admiration for that splendid house in some essays which appeared in their Catholic Review, The Correspondent. These essays will be put in the form of a volume. P.S: De Meaux is only a...

Scope and Contents On his return from Huron River he received Hennaert's letter of the 15th. It is false that he often takes walks with his housekeeper. What is true and frees him from blame is that in some cases of necessity he took her along to take back his buggy. He does not believe the public out of spite of stupidity could go so far! For such trips there is no one else in the neighborhood whom he can employ, even with money. He has struggled to reduce the cost of maintaining his two churches which has...

Scope and Contents Timon's letter of last month was received. It will probably not be in De Neckere's power to send at once the $100 for Masses but he will endeavor to forward it in two or three parcels. He now sends 40 Masses. New Orleans has been severely visited but except for a few cases, it has subsided. All their Sisters of Charity have been sick with the cholera or yellow fever. They thank Providence for having spared all their priests., P.S.D Neckere has sent the $40 through the Bank of the...

Scope and Contents He is sad to announce that Father Simon Richard, vicar general of this diocese, died on July 3. He left a will in which the Convent of the Barrens became an heir as follows: To the Sisters of Loretto 1436 gourdes with the obligation to pray often for the repose of his soul and those of his parents. The money is in bonds but it will not take long to cash them as soon as De Neckere has them. He is anxious for Timon to have it as he knows he has need of it. In the same will there is...

Scope and Contents De Neckere has been at the seminary several days and his health has improved. Doutreluingne no doubt noticed the old date of the letter brought by Brother Joseph, C.M.. It was forgetfulness, caused by the sickness he has suffered from so long. De Neckere has some money given him for Father Stephen Theodore Badin, a missionary from Kentucky; he believes Badin is now in Rome. At the College of St. Stanislaus there is another American missionary through whom he could get this money to ...

Scope and Contents De Neckere received Doutreluingne's letter and rejoices that they are again reunited under the government of the same Father and that the choice of the Holy See has fallen on a man as worthy as Father Peter De Wailly, C.M.. De Neckere has desired to learn whether Doutreluingne had received his exeat, and what his superiors have determined concerning his vocation. De Neckere was at Doutreluingne's home a few weeks ago; all were well and desire news of him. The pastor of Herseaux and...

Scope and Contents Some six or seven weeks ago he sent Father Peter J. Verhaegen, S.J. $40 as intentions for Masses. He desires to know whether they reached Timon. Father Constantine Maenhaut gave Timon's sister, Mrs. Douglas, $50 and observed to De Neckere afterwards that he intended them as intentions of Masses to be acquitted by Timon. De Neckere was not able when Mrs. Douglas applied to him for assistance, to afford her any and he accepted some $20 or $25 upon condition that a number of Masses would...

Scope and Contents De Neve sends Lefevere's bill for the scholastic year 1865-1866. Father John Anthony Herwig left this morning. He says his father's illness prevented an earlier return. Father F. O'Flanagan and Father James Pulcher will be ready in the spring next year. Father Joseph Joos can tell Lefevere that De Neve has endeavored to find men for Detroit. The number of students who can pay is getting very small. De Neve hopes Father Michael O'Donovan will give the utmost satisfaction. Thomas Rafter and...

Scope and Contents In compliance with the request of March 30, De Neve encloses the bill no enclosure. He hopes to collect the pension from them and he hopes Mr. Matthew H. Schaeken will pay his traveling expenses to America in September, if not he will have to charge it to Detroit. If Hennaert wishes to adopt or to secure more students for Detroit, De Neve will send the expenses in the next bill. Does Hennaert want Bohemians for the diocese? Why does the Redemptorist Father not preach any longer for the...

DeNeve acknowledges Hennaert's letter of Nov. 26 with draft enclosed for 102 pounds to be put to the account of the American College with Detroit. He cannot understand what became of Father Elvert, a good priest having paid his own expenses. He would be efficient in a German congregation, but not in an Irish one. When DeNeve admitted him to subdeaconship, he thought of Adrian, Michigan :: III-2-l A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.
