Opening page or pages missing. The discussion on the schema was unexpectedly put a stop to on June 3, 1870, so that Archbishop Peter R. Kenrick, of St. Louis was prevented from delivering his discourse. He was very much vexed at this, and determined that the world should know his thoughts on the matter, he had it published in Naples. He should not have done so for the sake of the Irish name and the American Church. McMaster will be able to judge this for himself when a copy of the speech reaches him. Kenrick's financial difficulties are known by all, even by "a certain class" of people. The unfortunate Chicago affair is also against Kenrick. For a month he lived alone and kept away from the sessions of the Council, then came the other day to give them his not, after they had all supposed the had left for Paris some time ago. He looks troubled and his mind is in agony. The question is: what shall become of him? Demers wonders what kind of reception the Archbishop John B. Purcell and Bishop Richard V. Whelan, who are about to return home, will be given. The Bishops of Pittsburgh Michale Domenec of Harrisburg Jeremiah Shanahan, and of Little Rock Edward Fitzgerald will soon be returning home too. They are against the definition of Infallibility as is also Bishop George William McCloskey of Louisville. This is a poor beginning for their episcopal career. Some French Bishops have written to their government on the subject of Infallibility, and Demers even heard while he was still in Paris that their leader saw the Emperor Napoleon III and asked him to withdraw the French troops from Rome, shoulf Infallibility be defined by the Council. Demers has no objection to believing this, though it appears incredible. Time will tell. The heat in Rome is intolerable, and as soon as the work is over Demers will leave for France and Belgium, to be in New York in autumn. :: I-1-m A.L.incompleteS. 2pp. 12mo.
