McQuaid gave Corrigan's letter of the 1st to Msgr. Denis O'Connell fter he asked if Corrigan had said anything about Cardinal James Gibbons' ermon. The letter contained Corrigan's dealing with McSweeny in Bishop John Moore's ase. It was important to let him see Corrigan's version because he was so often misrepresented. McQuaid said he would have refused Moore pontificalia if he had been Corrigan. Bishop John J. Keane ouched on the University subject, which is rare for him. With Keane, McQuaid alludes to the University only in a joking way, mentioning various "persons" for chairs at the University. McQuaid told him that it was the obligation of the University trustees to submit the statutes to the American Archbishops and Bishops before presenting them to Rome. The statutes have been placed before a commission of six Cardinals for examination. McQuaid told Keane he had a right to see them according to the council. All is not plain sailing. Ella B. Edes s slow in translating Father Richard L. Burtsell 's testimony in the Maguire case. The Rochester Union and Advertiser's article on Corrigan's reserved case letter was good. McQuaid has had to speak strongly in Corrigan's defense. Many here want peace at any cost. There is no answer yet in the Father Louis A. Lambert ase. McQuaid is afraid of a compromise, where Lambert would go back to the diocese. By happenings in Rome in favour of Lambert, a strong feeling has been created against McQuaid in Rome. McQuaid thinks all will come out all right and he will not leave until all is settled, although he is sick of the place and the life. :: I-1-i A.L.S.
