File of correspondence and memoranda regarding the boundaries of the American Capuchin Provinces arising from the desire of the Irish friars to establish a house in the Eastern United States. The correspondents include Fr. Sylvester Mulligan OFM Cap, Definitor General, Fr. Thomas Petrie OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Fr. Kevin Moynihan OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, and Michael J. Curley, Archbishop of Baltimore.
A letter (21 January 1930) from Fr. Thomas Petrie OFM Cap. to Fr. Kevin Moynihan OFM Cap. reads:
‘The Pennsylvania Province is pained and surprised that your Province should make a second attempt to enter our territory, and this time at our very door, in the heart of our Province, where our Fathers have been labouring since 1873. You must realize that your attitude does not show us that consideration and fairness which we might expect’.
