Prince D. P. Maksutov informed Bishop Paul of the organization of the Slavic
Orthodox Society at San Francisco which intended to build a church and had
collected donations for that purpose. Prince Maksutov requested the Bishop to
send a priest from Novo-Arkangelsk to San Francisco, stating that the Slavic
Society agreed to pay the travelling and living expenses of the priest. At the
same time, Maksutov reported that a certain runaway priest, Agapius Honcharenko,
tried to officiate among the Slavs at San Francisco but was rejected by them as
schismatic.

The Consistory decided to send Priest Nicholas Kovrigin and Churchman Vasili
Shishkin.
