M. Report prepared for the CG of 29 November 1824 on the vicariate apostolic of Nova Scotia. Following the death of E. Burke, bp. of Sion, on 29 November 1820, the CG of 26 July 1824 [see Acta 122] appointed Lyons, a priest of the diocese of Cork, vicar apostolic in Nova Scotia. The decision was approved by the Pope [Leo XII] at the audience granted on 1 August [see Acta 124], and two briefs [dated 24 August 1824; see Varia 328-329] were sent to Lyons, via [J.] Murphy [1772-1843], appointing him bp. of Tanis and vicar apostolic in Nova Scotia, together with a letter dated 4 September [1824]. Then, in [his letter of] 19 October [1824; see Acta 126], Lyons informed that he did not accept the appointment. The writer suggests that Lyons be replaced by Fraser, c.45, a former student in Valladolid, missionary in Fort William [1804-14], and teacher at the [Killechiarain] College, [island of] Lismore.

Fraser is recommended by Reginald MacDonald, vicar apostolic in the Highland district of Scotland, in his letter of 29 [recte 24] December 1823 [see SOCG 273], and by [A.B.] MacEachern, bp. of Rhosus, vicar [general] of the abp. of Québec [Plessis] in Prince Edward Island, in his letter [to Caprano] of 8 July [1824; see Acta 127]. According to the latter, Fraser, formerly (in 1823) in Cape Breton Island, currently in Nova Scotia, has the advantage of knowing both English and Celtic, a major factor in his region. R [in Caprano's handwriting]: The Pope is to be asked to appoint Fraser. Re PF [i.e., Caprano]'s letters to the bp. of Cork of 18 December 1824 [see Lettere 180]; to Lyons of 18 December 1824 [see Lettere 181]; to the abp. of Cashel [and Emly, Laffan] of 7 May 1825 [see Lettere 188]; to MacEachern [of 11 June 1825; see Lettere 194]; to Fraser of 11 June 1825 [see Lettere 195]. B: fol. 646r.
