Diakon Kunzes an der Elisabethkirche, Krankenwärther, Wundarzt, Vorsteher des “grünen Hauses,” Küster der Zionskapelle, wirkt schon in Stillwater, wo Wier (missourische gesinnt) nur noch vier Familien hat. Noch nicht kolloquiert, wird aber lutherisch sein. Fachtmann braucht Auftrag von Reim, sonst wendet er sich an Heyer. (Glied der Minnesotasynode, scheint er die Sache nach Wisconsin spielen zu wollen). Below als Lehrer.

(Hoffmann of Berlin recommended. Deacon Kunzes at the Elisabeth Church, nurse, surgeon, head of the “green house”, sexton of the Zionskapelle, is already working in Stillwater, where Wier (Missouri-minded) has only four families left. Not colloquiated yet, but will be Lutheran. Fachtmann needs an order from Reim, otherwise he turns to Heyer. (Member of the Minnesota Synod, he seems to want to play the matter to Wisconsin). Below as a teacher.)
