Haskins, Father George F., Providence, Rhode Island, to Father James Roosevelt Bayley, Fordham, New York, 1845 November 25
Scope and Contents
After Haskins' return from New York, he found Father William Wiley relapsed and very sick, and he obtained permission from Bishop Fenwick to return to his aid. When Haskins was in New York, he called immediately on Bishop John Hughes . The servant returned and said that the Bishop was occupied so Haskins spoke with Bishop McCloskey instead. One day when in Bishop Fenwick's room, Haskins was shown a letter from Hughes asking that Haskins might be allowed to come to help him at his college Fordham as John Harley was sick, Dr. Monahan was leaving, etc. Another letter shown Haskins stated that Harley was better and perhaps the matter had better rest for the present. That rainy Sunday Haskins preached for Father Larkin, otherwise he would have visited Bayley. Wiley says Father Hamilton was off to Jerusalem for a month before he left Rome. P.S. Wiley's health is now excellent. :: II-2-n A.L.S. 4pp. 4to.
