McFarland's letter came too late Saturday for an answer. He believes Bristol and the mission attended by Father M.B. Rodden will make an excellent parish. The sooner the appointment is made the better. He will not need Rodden during the retreat because six priests are coming and that will take care of the wants of people. He has written to the Fathers the last year he has performed all the Sunday services in the church. This mission will remove the pressure of Christmas confessions and he would try it for a year. The collections have never supported the Church without the mission. He would like to lessen church. This mission will remove the pressure of Christmas confessions and he would try it for a year. The collections have never supported the Church without the mission. He would like to lessen church expenses and mold the parish in his own way. The pastor at Naugatuck would be quite near him. A new Board of Education has been elected of which he is again a member. With him is a bad Catholic who for eleven or twelve years has caused trouble. If he is successful Hendricken will have to resign from the board. The interference is glaring. He is taking things calmly but may have to resign the parish in Toto. :: I-1-b A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
