Timon, John, Bishop of, Buffalo, New York, to Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, Detroit, Michigan, 1866 February 20
Scope and Contents
He will make the ordination of which he speaks on the 16th and 17th of March. As he always does for his own subjects, he will exact the oath and send it to Lefevere. He wished from the beginning that some joint action of the bishops would be taken regarding the Fenians, but he could not unite any number in it. The Society is getting to be very dangerous but the Fenian Sisterhood is still worse. Should the women unsex themselves in meeting to speak with their Fenian brothers of politics, war, and blood, a sad change will soon be seen in the greatly famed purity of Irish women. :: III-2-k A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.
