Brouillet agrees with McMaster's analysis of the various points of disciplinary changes petitioned for by the American priesthood, but wishes to add the following point, which he feels should be the essential basis of the status: That a priest once attached to a diocese be entitled as of right to such a clerical position as will secure him a decent and honorable support, except for cause. He feels that this point has never yet been theoretically admitted by the American hierarchy, and has in a few instances been practically overlooked. He would have McMaster develop the principle "that the education of children is the right and duty of the parents and not of the state". He feels that this sounds better to American ears than that of the Tablet "that education is the function of the Church, and her right." He wonders if McMaster received a registered letter containing $3.00 he sent at the first of this month. :: I-1-n A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
