            <!-- Embossed Bishop\'s Seal St. Marys, Sligo --> Feb. 28th 1916   My dear Monsignor,   I feel deeply grateful for the action your Council has taken in the Case of Mr. P. Breslin.—     Should you think it desirable you may intimate to him that he is free to look for another Mission if he intends to study for the church.     Under the Circumstances it might be the best Course for him to follow, as he Can scarcely hope to become a Success at Maynooth.     I enclose a Small personal donation towards the proposed Memorial to Dr. Whitehead.   Yours very sincerely,   <hi rend="underline"> Bern.d Coyne</hi>
