More Trouble at St. Prokop

More Trouble at St. Prokop
Despite Father Koudelka's departure in 1882, Cleveland Bishop Gilmour continued to have trouble with the church's rebellious parishioners. In February 1884, he closed the church and excommunicated the rebels. One year later, according to the January 12, 1885 Leader article above, the "war" still raged. Church rebels continued to challenge the decisions of the bishop for the remainder of the decade.
