Letter from Fr. Stephen Murtagh OFM Cap. to Fr. James O’Mahony OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, regarding the urgent purchase of property in Flintridge for a Seraphic School. Father Stephen affirms that he felt forced to act quickly because other parties were bidding for the property and local secular clergy urged the Order to secure it while Archbishop Cantwell ‘is with us’.
