Copy letter from Fr. Stephen Murtagh OFM Cap. to Louis B. Kucera, Bishop of Lincoln, Nebraska, detailing the mutual agreement for the Capuchin friars to withdraw from Sacred Heart Parish in Lincoln due to severe financial distress. The letter notes that the parish’s indebtedness was too large for its congregation to support. Capuchin priests had even been sacrificing portions of their small annual salaries to cover operating expenses.
