Copy letter from Fr. Colman Griffin to Fr. Stephen Murtagh

2 pp; typescript

Copy letter from Fr. Colman Griffin OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, to Fr. Stephen Murtagh OFM Cap. seeking clarification on several critical points regarding the negotiations with the Archbishop of San Francisco. Father Colman is concerned that the Archbishop’s hesitation regarding the term ‘monastery’ implies he wants the building under his jurisdiction rather than the exclusive ownership of the Capuchin Franciscan Order. He asks if the Archbishop’s promise to cover $25,000 to $30,000 in debt means the property will eventually belong to the Order once the debt is paid, or if it remains ‘Parish property’.
