Jahrhunderts, Volume 2, page 128: "When the Saxons reached the Elbe in 1838 they stopped in Magdeburg and visited the Lutheran congregations there, which stood under the leadership of Captain von Rohr and which also contemplated emigration. The people of Magdeburg considered this an opportunity to establish ties. For this reason Rohr was commissioned by the congregation to hold further negotiations with the Saxons. We do not have sufficient information concerning these negotiations to know what they were about but they probably had to do with nothing other than communal emigration or perhaps communal settlement. Rohr executed the commission from his congregations both orally and in writing. He saw the great potential of a communal effort and since the initial contact yielded no discernible results, he travelled with the Saxons as far as Bremen, indeed he accompanied them as far as the Bremen harbor. He did not want to neglect anything, which might serve to fortify Lutheranism in America. However the last, many-day long negotiations in Bremenhaven were dashed to pieces by the obstinancy and arrogance of Stephan, who in no modest terms demanded that the Prussian clerics would have to allow Stephan to reordain them. Rohr unsuccessfully returned to Magdeburg. But he didn't do this until after he had seen through Stephan and then warned the Saxons about him."
