Your Excellency:

I misspoke. I gave you the benefit of the doubt in our meeting

yesterday and in my subsequent letter where I said you generally apologized. In retrospect, you did not. What you said instead was to make an excuse for your defamatory remarks by
saying it was taken out of context or that it was not what you
intended to say. Upon checking again what you actually said,
there is no doubt that you meant what you said and you meant
to ruin and defame my name and that of Mr. Lastimoza in an
attempt to bolster and justify your act in removing me on July
16th as pastor of Santa Barbara.

I wanted the record clear on this point.

Respectfully,

Fr. Paul A.M. Gofigan
