Letter from Fr. Albert Bibby OFM Cap. to Fr. Stanislaus Kavanagh OFM Cap., referring to his difficult conditions in California. He wrote ‘The heat and I suppose change of food and water have told on me this month. I haven’t been well at all and have spent some days in bed’. Some mention is made of the political situation in Ireland: ‘Wasn’t D[e Valera]’s address after release wonderful? No word of bitterness from start to finish’. Reference is also made to Fr. Dominic O’Connor OFM Cap. and the opening of a house of studies in California. With cover.
