[edit]DescriptionLetter from Bishop Coyne, January 14th 1916..jpg |
English: A letter from Bishop Coyne, dated January 14th 1916, forbidding Fr. Michael O'Flanagan to speak at public meetings or to spend a night outside the parish of Ardcarne. O'Flanagan had recently been removed by the Bishop for making controversial speeches.
St. Mary’s, Sligo. 14 January 1916. Dear Father O'Flanagan, I regret exceedingly that I find it necessary - in the interests of religion, ecclesiastical discipline and good order - to withdraw from you as I do hereby and until further notice, permission to preach anywhere in this diocese: - as also to celebrate mass outside the parish of Ardcarne without my permission in writing. I also forbid you “sub poena suspensiouis” - to harangue the congregation, on any subject, inside or in the vicinity of the church or station house; or to speak publicly and disparagingly of your brother priests or ecclesiastical superiors. In this connection and in view of the recent grave public scandals with which your name has been so painfully and notoriously associated, I desire to direct your most serious attention to the Eccommunicto speciali modo R. P. reservata (No. 4. Appendix II. P. 50 aeta et deciu Con. Prov. Tuam.) Finally I must forbid you to deliver any public lecture or address, or to remain a night outside the parish of Ardcarne without my special permission in writing. Praying to God to grant you the grace to apply your energies and talents - after the noble example of so many of your brother priests - to the practical and edifying work of the mission. I remain your grieved and afflicted Bishop, Signed Bernard Coyne |
