Scope and content

Letter from +O’Hara to +McQuaid, marked Confidential. He encloses a copy of a letter he is sending to Cardinal D’Alton and the Archbishops of Tuam and Cashel in relation to Fr. Edward Lodge Curran, a priest of the Diocese of Brooklyn who is due to visit Ireland where he wishes to give a number of open-air public addresses. The priest is persona non grata in many American Dioceses. He had visited Ireland previously and addressed several public meetings. Fr. Lodge Curran claims there was never any objection to these by the Irish Hierarchy. He wishes the Cardinal and Archbishops to inform their Bishops. Annotated by +McQuaid stating ‘The address was given in O’Connell Street without my knowledge. I should never have allowed it’. See item 483.
