| Description | 15 January 1855, Frances Ball, Rathfarnham, to Archbishop Cullen, in Rome, explaining that when Cullen told her to leave things as they were in Stephen's Green and Dalkey, she presumed he referred only to a change of superior, otherwise she would not have made any changes. 7 June 1855, Sr M.F. Bridgeman, Koulalee (Constantinople), to Archbishop Cullen, reporting great improvements. The ban on instructing Catholics is gone. The new lady superintendent fully trusts Sr Bridgeman. The new purveyor is a real friend, and gives them carte blanche. Sr Bridgeman suggests sending out more Sisters, as two have to go home and there may be a request for Sisters for the Crimea. 18 August 1855, St Mary's Convent, Cabra, account of monies received from Mr Bligh and the expenses of his sisters in the community. |
