Bishop Mullen Denounces Public School Catholic Children
Bishop Mullen of Erie refuses absolution and sacraments to Catholics who send their children to public schools. Centenary Hall in Bishopsgate Street, home of the Wesleyan Missionary Society, will be put up for sale after a mission committee resolution. Dublin claims rise over Irish Church surplus with guardians debating uses including reduced beer rate and aid to the poor. Captain Brinkley proposes using surplus for poor relief, royal residence purchase, a pocket station, and fisheries development.
