Identifier: CDHT I-1-b

Scope and Contents

On receiving McFarland's letter he did not find any renewal of his faculty to ordain titulo missionis. He went to New York and Father Thomas Preston found none in his papers and Father Francis McNierny found no trace in his papers. Yesterday he saw Father William Starrs and he said he would call the attention of Archbishop John Hughes to it. If he finds anything he will let McFarland know. Loughlin thought that the renewal had been sought and granted. Bishop JohnTimon was there yesterday and said he had the faculty. Loughlin asks McFarland if he has the faculty for dispensing from abstinence from flesh meat on Saturday. In a letter of the Cardinal, of which he has a copy, mention is made of the faculty but Loughlin cannot find it. The faculties are received and will be printed by Father McNierny. :: I-1-b A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
