Series 4: Book of Permissions

This series comprises the permissions, contracts, or other formal relationships committing Baltimore Carmel to church or civic arrangements. More than one half of the documents permanently pasted into this book reflect permissions given or indulgences obtained during the years 1873-1897. This time frame and a similar concentration of interest suggest that a companion book, the "Scrapbook," and this "Book of Permissions" are the work of the same compiler, Sister Louise of St. John the Evangelist Peckocheck.
