Charbonnel, S.S., Bishop Armand Francis Marie of, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, to Archbishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1859 October 17
Scope and Contents
Charbonnel sends Blanc a copy of his letter to Father Charles Chambost ; he hopes Chambost will not come. On November 20 or 21 Charbonnel will consecrate the Coadjutor of Toronto, Bishop John Joseph Lynch . His bulls are dated August 26; he seems very judicious and pious. That is not what Blanc would have got in the Bishop of Toronto. Charbonnel would like to act as a member of the Third Order of St. Francis, joining some Capuchin monastery in France and instructing, visiting the sick, preaching the Association of the Propagation of the Faith, and giving retreats in seminaries. If the Holy See wants to continue his annihilation through the English language, Charbonnel will do all he can to have a Capuchin monastery in Toronto where he can live as he would in France. If he had been with Blanc it would have been under these conditions. A.L.S. French 1p. On the same paper:
