Letter from Mgr. Patrick Boylan to +McQuaid regarding Fr. Finbar O’Mahony O.S.B., the Superior of the Benedictine University Hostel. He has been appointed Conferencier to the Sisters at the Nunciature by Mother Mary. He will not however be 40 years old until the following year and so perhaps he can be allowed to have weekly or monthly conferences with the Sisters while making it clear he has not been appointed Confessor. He notes ‘…Mother Mary has never had the slightest tendency to look on the authorities of the Dublin Diocese as deserving any special recognition or respect’.

The Diocesan Archive is open to all researchers by appointment only, from 9:30am to 1:00pm and 2:00pm to 4:45pm, Monday to Friday.
