1 p.; manuscript

Letter from ‘Richard Rowley’ (Richard Valentine Williams) to Fr. Senan Moynihan OFM Cap., offering his opinion on ‘The Capuchin Annual’ (1943). Rowley claims he is neither ‘a politician or a partisan’. He adds ‘It seems to me that one solution has never been attempted, and that is the power of love. No nation can be built up on mutual hate and suspicion between different parties and creeds’.
