Draft letter from Fr. Brendan O’Callaghan OFM Cap. to Fr. Kevin Moynihan, Provincial Minister, discussing a typed copy of Bishop Fitzmaurice’s recent letter. Father Brendan notes that Father Joseph Fenelon typed up the copy and mentions that he has also sent a copy to Father Sylvester Mulligan. He requests that the Provincial send ‘Fr. Edward or Canice or both’ to secure Bishop Fitzmaurice’s signature on an official form, lamenting that a short form previously supplied by Father Sylvester has been misplaced. Father Brendan notes that the local real estate agent must be wondering why they have not closed the deal yet, and he urges the Provincial for a final word so they can settle on the house purchase. He concludes by expressing regret that the Provincial has been so heavily bothered by the simultaneous issues with the Baltimore and Wilmington properties.
