Letter from Fr. Sylvester Mulligan

2 pp; manuscript

Letter from Fr. Sylvester Mulligan OFM Cap. to Fr. Peter Bowe OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, referring to a canonical dispute regarding the establishment of a Capuchin foundation in Roseburg, Oregon, and the rights of the Order. Father Sylvester informs Father Edwin that he has found an ‘authentic record’ of a Rescript (No. 1950/13) granted on 2 May 1913, for the foundation in Roseburg. This document is crucial because it proves the foundation’s official recognition by the Vatican.
