Copy letter from Fr. Peter Bowe, Provincial Minister, to James J. Ryan expressing his deep gratitude for Ryan’s previous letter and confirms that he has officially written to Archbishop Ryan of Philadelphia. He shares his prayers that success will crown Ryan’s noble efforts to open a mission field in America for the ‘Irish Sons of St. Francis’. Father Peter promises to share the archbishop’s final decision as soon as he hears it, though he notes that Ryan will likely hear the news first locally. Closing on a personal note, Father Peter mentions that there is ‘no ballplaying going on’ since Ryan ‘carried off the Championship to America’.
