Description

[August 1915- June 1928] Typescript memorandum by (Hagan) for Bishop McRory of Down and Connor, for [...Congregation]. Renewing his plea for having three of his priests receive honorary doctorates in Theology; arguing against the rejection of the earlier petition by pointing out how useful the degrees would be for their respective lecturing positions in Maynooth and at St. Malachy's. The degree from the Collegium Doctissimorum Theologorum, on the other hand, is not regarded highly in Ireland. The bishops prefer not to create a large number of prelates and chamberlains, preferring the honorary doctorate.
