McQuaid, Bishop Bernard Joseph, Rochester, New York, to Archbishop Michael Augustine Corrigan, New York, New York, 1886 December 11
Scope and Contents
The papers all over the country are full of the Father Edwards McGlynn incident. Corrigan should say nothing to Henry George and should send everything to Rome. He should give the facts about the Public school vs. the Catholic school, also McGlynn's action in regard to the Land League meetings. It is for the best interests of the people to replace McGlynn. If he is not removed from the city, any other discipline is of little use. McQuaid did not write to Rome on the "German question". He has received a letter from Bishop Richard Gilmour asking what is to be done. McQuaid answered that this underhand work should be put a stop to, if possible. Dispatches tell that Cardinal Franzelin is dead. An editorial in this morning's "Democrat" backs up Corrigan satisfactorily. McGlynn has a more numerous following among the younger priests than Corrigan has knowledge of. If Corrigan wins a definitive victory, afterwards he will have little trouble of this kind. :: I-1-i A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo. Photostat from Archdiocesan Archives of New York
