McQuaid thought that Rome had wisely ordered Father Richard L. Burtsell to obey, without a formal investigation, but a juridical form has to be gone through with. No one could be a better ponenti for Corrigan than Cardinal Camillo Mazzella. McQuaid also sent some newspaper clippings to the Cardinal. The whole affair has shocked and scandalized Catholics and surprised Protestants. Msgr. Arthur J. Donnelly was buried with all honor. Corrigan will have the news of the meeting in Brooklyn. It will ward off the French-Canadian invasion for some time. Msgr. James T. McManus is very sick. Msgr. Denis J. O'Connell is still wandering around the country. Bishop Stephen Ryan is very sick. Father Fridolin Pascalar expects Corrigan to take part in the dedication of St. Michael's Church on September 29. Tomorrow McQuaid visits Bishop Richard Gilmour. Rome is dead-set against him. Father Louis A. Lambert notified McQuaid he would take Scottsville as his mission. P.S. Bishop John J. Keane is to make a tour of inspection of the chief seminaries in the U.S. McQuaid will send a protest to Msgr. Henry Gabriels against such a process without Corrigan being warned in advance. :: I-1-i A.L.S.Photostat from Archdiocesan Archives of New York 4pp. 12mo.
