McFarland has been informed that Bishop William Tyler presented to the Council that opened in Baltimore May 5 1849 letters from two physicians certifying that his health was such that he could live but a short time. A coadjutor was appointed. He is anxious to ascertain if such letters were written in order to prove that certain statements of May 26 of that year should be regarded as dying statements. He wishes LeProhon to secure what information he can about this. Mr. Power has explained his reason for seeking the statement. A suit has been brought by Mrs. Hannetty to recover $3,000 and interest loaned to Bishop Tyler and Bishop Bernard O'Reilly. There is no trace of such a loan or that the Hannettys were able to make such a loan. Tyler gave a list of his debts and this is not mentioned. Should Prohon's familiar intercourse with Tyler have brought him knowledge of facts in this case, McFarland would like a brief statement of them. He could have the evidence taken in Portland by some one appointed for this purpose. :: I-1-a A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
