Description
Fragment holograph letter from [Sister Mary Magdalen Hyland], St. Louis' Convent, Kiltimagh (County Mayo), to [Hagan], explaining at length � on behalf of Mother Louis - why under the circumstances they cannot take Hagan's advice. Setting down that their bishop 'endeavours to usurp the [authority] of the superioress' or allows the parish priest to do so; he rescinded a decision in favour of a new foundation and demanded to have his letters on the matter returned; also placed the convent under an interdict. Outlining the support that their petition to the Holy Father has from within the convent; appealing to them to present the petition for them- possibly to Cardinal Gasparri. (End missing; water damage on one side.)
