Letter

Holy Cross Retreat: Ardoyne; Belfast: Dispute with Bishop McAllister: Letter from Fr Thomas, Consultor General, Rome to Fr Provincial, Highgate. London. Thomas has gone to Propaganda with Document sealed and signed by General. (This document is the following one located under serial number 1994). The documewnt was too vaguely worded for them so Thomas added a page, (which he encloses at page 4 of the letter and written in Latin). When he got back Fr Arthur's letter was there showing St Joseph's CPs would not agree to letting Bishop have anything to do with a church on CP grounds (copy of that letter is not extant in these archives). This put it all back to square one. so Vice-Genaral says send document back to Provincial to see if enclosure will be accepted. No point in Arthur coming to Rome Gives reason why. Gives reason why enclosure be signed.
