THE Ri. REV. MGR. CAPEL
INDIGNANTLY DENIES THAT HE
HAS LIVED A BAD LIFE,
And He DeDOunces the Author OF
the IibeIOus Statements as
Liar and Coward.

New YORK, October 1.-THE Her
AIDS San Francisco correspondent tel
egraphs an interview had with Mgr
Capel, in which the eminent prelatt
denies with indignation the reports o.
his improper conduct in California
Mgr. Capel says; Il thought at first
that the matter was too vile to be be-
lieved, but ROW see that, although ]
will not stoop to refuiation, YET
rome short reply is necessary. Hav-
ing been broken down in health, as q
result Of delivering over 10l lectures
in short space of time, contracted
malaria, which had prcstraied me at
times. In this condition / accepted
the invitation OF an estimable Catholic
lady to stay in the country and there
recruit. She is the daughter of one OF
the oldest pioneers in the State, the
late Gen. John McCawley. She has
long been foremost in establishing
and maintaining Catholic missions, to
which she is always willing to con-
tribute her time, services and proper
ty. She raised in great part
the funds necessary to build
the Catholic Church at Gait.
On the occasion Of the dedica-
ton OF the church, which recently oc-
Cured, Archbishop Riordan, of San
Francisco, AID the whole party of WIS.,
iting clergy, were guests OF MIS-. Va
leusin. Gov. Stoneman, OF California,
aud wife, paid her visit one week
ago. To her the parish priest always
turns when he desires to obtain money
TO carry on his church, She is q we'll
educated lady, bearing an irieproach-
able character, and is honored by her
neighbors. You can have some faint
idea OF the indignation those insinua.
tons must awaken in them and in me.
That is all l have to ssy, except that
the parish priest, who introduced me
to Mrs. Valeu;in, has made her house
his home, staying two or three days
every week, aud keeping three horses
on her land. Mgr. Ospel also stated
that out of consideration for Mrs. Va
leusin's kindness he had undertaken
to give some lessons to and attend to
the religious education OF her young
son during bis stay at her house.
The Herald also prints the following
card;
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, October 10, 1886.
To the Editor of the Herald:
Your reporter sends my g. atement.
l ask the insertion over my signature

monstrosity capable OF and RESPONSE
be for giving its false and malicious
California charges against me, or
stand convicted OF gross fasehood
and cowardice. TT. CAPEL.
