Description

Letter written from Portland, Oregon. Croke reports that the church has been moved to a new site and asks for the deed necessary to complete the land transaction. He expresses that he would like to fence in the church to keep out the hogs, and plant small garden. He shares that he will require more money to visit Astoria and St. Helens.
Rev. James Croke (1827-1888) was a Catholic missionary priest who served in Oregon in the 1850s, reporting directly to Bishop Francis Blanchet of Oregon City, Oregon. This small collection consists of typed transcripts of letters from Croke to Blanchet concerning the details of his missionary work. The original letters are held privately.
