Scope and content
Letter from +McGeough to +McQuaid regarding the Peter’s Pence collections. Ireland is one of the countries who gives the most but per capita. However, the last collection fell by almost 5% and with devaluation and so forth, the collection may fall further this year. The demands on the finances of the Hoy Father are ever increasing especially in direct consequence of the Ecumenical Council and the ever increasing needs for those suffering from famine and poverty. He appeals to the Archbishop to seek the help of all the clergy to appeal to the people to be as generous as possible.
