Letter from Fr. Joseph Fenelon OFM Cap. to Fr. Edwin Fitzgibbon OFM Cap. reporting on administrative and clerical updates in the American mission. Reference is made to ongoing efforts to secure an interview with Bishop Fitzmaurice regarding the Wilmington Diocese, and there is continued discussion about taking over the St. Francis of Assisi parish in Los Angeles. Several friars (Fathers Mark, Thomas, and Basil) are scheduled to depart for Ireland on 9 June aboard the S.S. ‘Adriatic’. Father Fenelon also acknowledges the appointment of Fr. Luke Sheehan OFM Cap. as Provincial Superior in the United States until a permanent successor is chosen.
