2 pp; manuscript

Copy letter from Fr. Peter Bowe, Provincial Minister, to James J. Ryan praising Ryan’s swift and skillful negotiations on behalf of the Capuchins, remarking that a member of Holy Orders could not have handled the matter better. Father Peter advises that they must now patiently await the archbishop’s formal manifestation and decision regarding their request. He concludes by expressing a deep debt of gratitude to Ryan that will grow alongside their Irish-American work, offering a prayer that God and St. Francis bless Ryan and grant him a special blessing.
