I have read that newspaper article quite a few times over the years. While typical of the writing styles of the day, it does present some interesting details. However, I fail to see why you are recommending it as documentation of Louis Weichmann's sainthood. Are you assuming that we readers will take your word for it that the article proves his purity of actions?
