Description

Holograph letter from Archbishop D. Mannix, Raheen, Kew, Victoria (Australia), to (Hagan), glad that the College will be represented at the Congress but many regretted Hagan did not come himself. In Sydney, the bigots' opposition to the Host being carried through the streets has been overcome. He has seen The Standard which offers news of a kind but not much Catholic reading. DeValera asked Mannix about fundraising in Australia but doubting those with capital can be interested. Glad that Dr. Gilmartin and Dr. Doherty will be sent as the Irish bishops' delegates. Advising him that Dr. Maurice O'Reilly C.M. will travel to Europe next March to do research on the life of Cardinal Moran. A new diocese will be carved from Brisbane, Toowoomba, and the priests have voted for a bishop – 'you might [start] a candidate?'
