Scope and Contents

In the Pilot of Sept. 12 there is a letter signed by Rev. Louis Sabringi, whom he met last January in Beyrouth. The Pro-Vicar Apostolic of Syria residing in Beyrouth complains that this man has collected sums of money in America but not one piastre has been expended in Syria for the furtherance of Catholic purposes. Since his return from America, this Sabringi has talked of building a Church but nothing constructively has been done. He is a worthy companion of Chaldeni the other Oriental humbug. He wishes to have McMaster arouse the New York administration against this man and have him arrested if necessary and to find out under what pretenses he has come back. However he has no written proof from the Pro-Vicar so he would rather not meet this Sabringi either in print or in person, but wishes to have McMaster return the letter to him along with his opinion of it. :: I-2-a A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
