Letter from Fr. Stephen Murtagh OFM Cap. to Fr. Colman Griffin OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, discussing the ongoing tensions between the Capuchin Order’s development and the local Diocese’s expectations. A major point of contention involves a proposed school. Father Stephen clarifies that the Order’s primary concern is its own development and that it cannot assume financial responsibility for a project costing ‘some thousands of dollars’ that is not in the Order’s name. The letter mentions a site at Roseburg given to the Order by Archbishop Christie. To move forward with any property changes, the author suggests the Provincial Minister petition the Holy See for the ‘alienation of the property’ to ensure legal and religious protocols are followed. Reference is also made to Fr. Alban Cullen’s appointment to Santa Inés.

Copy of the decrees and resolutions of the Custos Provincial (Fr. Stephen Murtagh OFM Cap.) and Consultors. The document outlines the critical administrative, financial, and personnel changes for the Capuchin Franciscan friars in California and Oregon.

Administrative & Financial Decisions:
New Friary at Burlingame: Plans are to be drawn for a new friary. A petition will be sent to Archbishop Mitty requesting that the parish cover the cost of its erection.
Roseburg School Project: Father Berchmans is tasked with investigating the financial viability of building a school at the Roseburg parish.
Establishment of a Custos Provincial Fund: A new fund is created to cover local expenses, assist friars traveling from Ireland, and save for a future ‘Seraphic School’.
Banking Protocols: All money must now be banked in the name of the Order (not individuals), ideally requiring two friars’ names for registration.

The document lists several reassignments of friars across various the California and Oregon missions:
Fr. Alban: Appointed Superior of Old Mission Santa Inez and Pastor of the Parish.
Fr. Anthony: Moved from Fort Bragg to Burlingame.
Fr. Fergus: Moved from Burlingame to St. Lawrence, Los Angeles.
Fr. Victor: Moved from St. Lawrence to the Novitiate at Wilmington.
Fr. Richard: Moved from St. Lawrence to Ukiah.
Fr. Irenaeus: Moved from Ukiah to Wilmington.
Fr. Leopold: Appointed to St. Lawrence, Los Angeles.
Fr. Roger: Appointed to Fort Bragg.

Copy letter from Fr. Colman Griffin OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, to Fr. Stephen Murtagh OFM Cap. regarding the administrative changes in the Western American mission. The letter suggests that Fr. Alban Cullen be placed in a ‘comparatively quiet place such as Santa Inez, rather than a busier house, to ensure he has ‘plenty of work to do’. Reference is also made to the legal standing of the Roseburg (Oregon) property. The Capuchin leadership in Dublin is confused about whether the property actually belongs to the Order or is merely ‘parochial property’.

Cutting of an article from 'The Southern Cross', 16 Nov. 1938, lamenting the recent departure of Fr. Alban Cullen OFM Cap. for California. The article reads: ‘Fr. Alban arrived in Cape Town some nine years ago and took over what was then a struggling, obscure little mission, know as St. Raphael’s, Athlone, Cape Flats, and now, on his departure, we find a handsome and commodious church … [and] a dignified and roomy presbytery’.
