Nov. 19, 1919 Gasparri asks Pacelli to review and report back on Baron Cramer-Klett’s proposal of special Vatican honors for several Bavarian Catholics. English translation

It also contained praise for Councilor Adolf Braun and especially for Rev. Giovanni Evangelista Müller.
Together with this letter, Baron von Cramer-Klett presented two general certificates from the same Archdiocesan Ordinariate for Rev. Giuseppe Jud and Gioacchino Pölzl.
