On leaving McFarland yesterday he was in hope that he could return to his diocese but this hope has been weakened by certain intelligence communicated to this house. He does not believe that McFarland could so charitably dispose of him without letting him know beforehand. He requested an investigation of the facts and supposed that after his retreat he would be again reinstated in a position honorable to the priesthood. He is growing old and anxious of his good name and cannot expect any bishop to receive him if he is dismissed by McFarland. He asks prayers during his retreat. :: I-1-c A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
