letter from J.J.McCarthy, 163, Great Brunswick Street, Dublijn to the Rector of Mount Argus, Fr. Dominic O.Neill, C.P.
Plans for cuhurch are ready. Since there is no contractor, a clerk of works is necessary. Is of the opinion that his time and trouble in making plans (before Dominic became Rector) should be paid for.

On blank page of this letter is copy or draft of Dominic's reply asking for a statement of charges..

lette to J.J.McCarthy, 163, Great Brunswick Street, Dublijn from the Rector of Mount Argus, Fr. Dominic O.Neill, C.P.

Received with astonishment the bill for £212 for work done for Frs. Osmund and Alphonsus. Complains that this matter has now been raised for the first tiime after the expiry of several years. Mentions that the Fathers at that time and at considerable expense to themselves, set aside another architect to make way for him (McCarthy). He was also well paid for previous work. Plans were only tentative at that time and could be regarded as only sketches. To claim for them is now is improper. .

MOUNT ARGUS BUILDINGS/AS A WHOLE; J.J. McCARTHY (ARCHITECT);
letter from J.J.McCarthy, 163, Great Brunswick Street, Dublijn to the Rector of Mount Argus, Fr. Dominic O.Neill, C.P.

There is no impropriety in his claim. Rejects that he put aside one architect for another. Tentative plans must have ressonabe limits. Fr. Alphonsus understood this and said that McCarthy would be paid, as did Fr. Osmund before he left office. He can't see how two sets of drawings (and now another) are sketches. All this took time and took him away from other work.
