Keane, John J.,, Bishop of, Richmond, Virginia, to Bishop William, Henry Elder, Cincinnati, Ohio, 1879 October 23
Item
Identifier: CANO VI-3-b
Scope and Contents
It is with great trepidation that he answers Elder's letter, for he fears a candid answer will lose one who is the right arm of the Diocese. Father Francis Janssens is a man of more than ordinary talent and extraordinary calmness and prudence of judgment. He has every reason to believe he would equally win the priests of Natchez . The Bishops of their province would not nominate him for North Carolina or Richmond because convinced that the Bishop ought to be an English-speaking man "to the manor born." A.L. Copy 3pp. 12mo.
