Koehler's Index: 565. 1861, November 18, sent from Milwaukee by Dammann to Bading. Ist unzufrieden dass Kilian nach Greenfield gekommen. Auch darüber dass er zu früh aufgenommen, da er doch reformiert war. Dammann dringt mit Köhler auf gesund lutherisches Wesen, macht aber etwas viel von liturgischen Formen.

(Is dissatisfied that Kilian came to Greenfield. Also about the fact that he was admitted too early, since he was a reformer. Dammann, like Köhler, insists on a healthy Lutheran character, but makes too much use of liturgical forms.)
