Bax considers the editorial in the New York Tablet against him a lie and a calumny. He thinks he ought to sue the publisher for libel. He opposed the laymen as vouchers for the accounts because they do not handle the money. He has always maintained the necessity of handing in yearly reports although he was not required to do so by any fixed law. Six priests wrote the Bishop when he was in Europe asking him to require them to have laymen look over their books. He thinks the oppression on the part of some bishops is too much. He asks McMaster what course he should pursue as to suing Sadlier and Co. for libel. :: I-2-a A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
