Scope and Contents

He delayed answering because he was waiting for an answer to his question about Thomas Broderick's bills. Can he charge Father Tierny? Father H. DeRegge has arrived and given him McFarland's letter of January 8. He gives DeRegge Nos. 88-94 to take to America and assures the printer that McFarland's subscription continues. It is impossible to send a priest to Father F. DeBruycker. He is grateful for suggestions for the good of the college. If the theologians were better known Gratry would have less influence. He wishes the Americans would study their theology. The American prelates should examine before giving jurisdiction and give jurisdiction for only a limited time. He has made up his mind not to receive students for such dioceses. As to the two men for McFarland, Creedon so far is all right. Fagan has given no satisfaction in the first examination. He sends the questions and his examination in scripture no enclosures. :: I-1-c A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
