Letter from Fr. Peter Bowe OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, to Fr. Antonine Wilmer OFM Cap. expressing his gratitude for the care provided to Irish Capuchin students in Rome. He agrees to pay 200 Lire monthly for Brother James O’Mahony and requests that all college and Curia expenses be billed directly to the Provincial Fund to simplify bookkeeping. The letter references an agreement sanctioned by the Father General allowing the English Provincial to send friars to the Irish headquarters at Abbottstown, Pennsylvania. Fr. Peter admits he is ‘not too sure that the arrangement will work harmoniously’ but hopes for the best, noting that precautions have been taken to avoid friction. Father Peter reports the death of Fr. Nicholas Murphy, an ex-Definitor, who died on All Saints’ Day after celebrating Mass. He requests that an obituary notice be placed in the ‘Analecta’ (the Order’s official periodical).
