- Copy letter from Fr. Peter Bowe OFM Cap., Provincial Minister, to Fr. Antonine Wilmer OFM Cap., Definitor General, regarding administrative and personnel matters within the Irish Capuchin mission. Father Peter acknowledges receiving legal documents (Rescripts) concerning the mission in Ukiah, California. He forwarded the documents intended for the Archbishop of San Francisco to his Vicar General to await the Archbishop’s return. He expresses disappointment over Fr. Felix’s failure in an exam but remains optimistic about his talents. Fr. Cassian performed well despite health issues. Fr. James ‘made his mark as usual’ and wishes to go to Louvain (Belgium) to finish his scholarship. Fr. Peter supports this, believing it will prepare him to be a teacher of Philosophy for the Irish Capuchin Province.

Copy St Laurence Church Holy Redeemer Church Compton Ave. and Palm Drive P. O. Box 38 Matts, California 26th April 1926 I was sent - dear Sir - to entering Logether with your kind letter of June the 23 I received on Rescripts sent to Mr Joseph re Which, and I sent the one for the Archbishop of San Francisco on to his Vicar General to await his return. Since we arranged and sent on to you the documents for Sir Enez Old mission, and I have been detained her for the bearing of new school and other matters until now so that I can not hope to get back to Enez before the end of next month. I am disappointed with the failure of Mr Felix but I am quite sure he can give a good assurt of himself if he applies the talent he evidently has got after the Det change. Mr Carrian did well considering his condition of health and of course Mr James made his mark as usual. It seems the university home wants Mr James hearts hearts to go to houseing to finish his schoolship there and if it can be arranged I think it would be best for his future respulness in the Grovings as teacher of Philosophy. I know you will do what is best in that as in all other matters connected with our home and American Affairs. Praying God to bless you and your many good works and fairness by Mr Joseph in wishing you and through your Mr General and the Curia a very holy and happy heart of St. Laurence I remain Oldly and gratefully Yours In Peter of Tullaroan
