Letter from +Duhig to +McQuaid thanking him for all the hospitality shown to the pilgrims during their visit to Ireland. He discusses the connection between Queensland and Ireland and mentions the caliber of the men in positions of power.

Panico’s bishops, three of whom have already resigned. He is celebrating his Golden Jubilee at the end of the year and would like to receive an honorary degree from the National University.
