1. J. X. P. In compliance with the Convocatory Letter of the Very Rev. Fr. Adrian of the Seven Dolours, Provincial, dated 28th April 1938, and sent to all the Rectors and Superiors of the Province, the Capitular Fathers assembled in St. Paul's Retreat, Mount Argus, Dublin, on the evening of the 26th June 1938. FIRST SESSION. At 9 o'clock on the morning of June 21st the first meeting was held. Most Rev. Fr. Titus of St Paul of the Cross, General, presided, assisted by the Very Rev. Fr. Bonaventure of the Assumption of the B.V.M., Consultor-General, who acted as interpreter. The oath "de secreto servando" was administered to him. After the customary prayers had been recited, Most Rev. Fr. General addressed the Chapter. His Paternity said: "With great joy and full of confidence we open the fourth Chapter of your Province. Even though St. Patrick's Province counts but a few years since its Constitution, it nevertheless stands as a mighty tree in the garden of our Congregation, watered by abundant grace and producing flowers and fruit in abundance. "These fruits are, as writes the Very Rev. Fr. Provincial in his Convocatory Letter, the many young men in the novitiate and in our Houses of Study, the charity which reigns among you and unites subjects and superiors, fidelity to the spirit of our vocation, and the works of the apostolate proper to us and which grow with the days for the salvation of innumerable souls.
