Letter from William J. Walsh, Archbishop of Dublin, Archbishop's House, Dublin to Fr William Delany SJ concerning the move of the Jesuit Fathers from St Stephen's Green. Remarks that ‘...the leave of the Holy See...is now necessary.’. Continues ‘It will make things smoother if you mention in the petition...that this is not a question of a new foundation but the establishment of two houses rendered advisable by legal changes which involved the removal from University College.’. In a postscript marked ‘Confidential’ the Archbishop refers to the Chair of Logic. Remarks that he thought Fr Maher was going forward and ‘On that account I did not regard Shine’s candidature as a real one...It is said there will be a veto from Cork against any but an O.P.!’.
