• CALG 12/26.03 Letter : Fényi Ottó to ALG 1995/1208

  Ottó is glad to note that after 50 years of dark Communist rule they were able to establish the Premontré Alumni Association of Nagyvárad. Ottó was elected as president.

Since the members are all senior citizens there is not much revenue coming in for the Association.

• CALG 12/27.01 Letter : ALG to Fényi Ottó 1994/1227
  ALG was glad to read Ottó's article appearing in the Hungarian Church History Almanach. The article is about Bernát. ALG's friend, Professor Székely György, was of great assistance to Bernát. ALG inquires about Bernát's monograph having to do with the Public Records of Budapest. ALG learned from his American friends in the holy order of a new Catalogue that will be put together in Germany. ALG is sorry to note that the previous Catalogues have degraded his accomplishments and titles. Here in America everybody knows that within the Roman Catholic Church ALG is one the greatest scholars and member of most Academies. ALG attaches the corret version of the full text with his titles. He will send a copy to Kutsch in Germany. Hungarian
• CALG 12/27.02 Letter : Igaly Gyuri to ALG 1993/1128
  Finding that there is a new church schoolestablished at Gödöllő in the former baracks, Gyuri would like to know the proper name of the school. He also inquires about the name of the head of the Premontré Order in Hungary, in case there is one. Gyuri and couple of former students of ALG from Gödöllő do think that a coeducational public school, even if an old Premontré Provost is its principal, can not claim to be the true descendant of the old Premontré School they have attended. Gyuri also asks ALG to call, or pay his respect to, Countess Bárczy Piroska who lives in Providence now. No one other than her and Gyuri are the descendants of the Bánffy Earldom. Gyuri would be happy if ALG would pay a visit to him when he visits Budapest next time. He wishes happy Christmas. Hungarian
• CALG 12/27.03 Letter : ALG to Fényi Ottó 1994/1122
  ALG thanks Ottó for the information sent on 15 of August. Ottó did mention is his letter the financial compensations paid by the Hungarian state to the Order in satisfaction of wrong done in 1945. As per Ottó's will, ALG did not make any arrangements to get back the Canon's monastic quarters from the state. ALG learned by word of mouth of the "half a million", but he does not know if this amount is in dollars or the Hungarian currency, Forint. This relief, however, does not mean selling the Order at Gödöllő. ALG will vote "non placet" if the Hungarian government considers this a sale with a transfer of ownership to them. This would eliminate any future atonement from their part. If the relief is considered "lease" then ALG would vote yes. He knows that nobody will vote "non placet" and that his only vote will not change anything, still his conscience dictates him to cast this vote. ALG thinks that Ottó keeps all his correspondences, just like ALG keeps his. ALG will turn 87 soon. Hungarian
• CALG 12/27.04 Letter : Fényi Ottó to ALG 1994/0815
  Ottó regrets that they did not meet upon ALG's last visit. He understands ALG's reservations and reasons for not paying his respect at Gödöllő. Earlier Ottó had sent a book including his greetings to ALG with another brother from the order, but he was informed that ALG has not received them. He hopes that despite all past grievances, ALG will visit his alma mater at Gödöllő on the next opportunity he gets. Ottó sends information concerning the restitution of the Order's buildings, including the abbey and the land, from the Hungarian state. There have been negotiations going on for years now. Hungarian

• CALG 12/27.08 Letter : ALG to Fényi Ottó 1994/0627
  Perhaps Ottó has learned from the papers of ALG's visit in Budapest, Hungary. The visit had to be brief consequently ALG did not have time to visit Ottó. Also he did not call him at Gödöllő because he had no intention to talk to that Premontré brother, who recently visited American abbeys but did not bother to contact ALG. In Hungary, ALG did not want to abash Ottó. Unfortunately their former student and benefactor, Kálmán Tivadar, passed away. Hungarian
• CALG 12/27.09 Letter : Fényi Ottó to ALG 1992/1210
  Ottó sends his congratulations to ALG on his 85th birthday, the senior professor of the convent at Gödöllő. Ottó intended to write before ALG's birthday but was too busy. Now he would like to thank ALG for the letters and the precious book-collection he donated to the new library of the Order at Gödöllő. He begs pardon for not thanking him sooner. Their common friend, Kumorovitz Bernát, passed away. Ottó informs ALG of the current events happening in the Premontré Orders at Gödöllő, Hungary, and at Várad, Romania. Hungarian
• CALG 12/27.10 Letter : Márton Hugó to ALG 1993/0809
  Hugó regrets that he has not written for 18 months to thank ALG for his greetings. In 1991, he paid a visit to Várad, Romania, and then he was ill for a while. He is happy to hear that ALG, turning 86, is in good health. He also hears that upon his visit to Budapest ALG did not have time to visit the St. Norbert's College at Gödöllő. He asks if ALG's title is listed correctly in the Catalog that is currently in making or is he still listed simply as member of the Order. The Abbot General promised Hugó a spot in the Campo Santo Verano vault in Rome when needed. Hungarian
• CALG 12/27.11 Letter : Dragsits Ottó to ALG 1990/1212
  Ottó is sorry for not responding to ALG's letter since May, but he was aggrieved by its content. He will recap his response in 5 major points. Ottó begs pardon for his bluffness. Along with other members of the St. Norbert Order and the College, Ottó supports the work of Nunc Prior of Gödöllő, Fényi Ottó.

• CALG 12/29.01 Letter : Bartal Károly Tamás to ALG 1992/0327
  Although Károly doesn't know ALG in person, still he writes a few lines informing him of the Premontré Canonical Order at Jászó. Now the abbey has 7 residents: 5 novicus, the prior, and Károly. The rest of the castle is used as a hospital where people with psychosis are treated. The state gave back the house at Kassa, Slovakia. Now this functions as a boarding school. However, the Order's stolen assets were not compensated at all. Károly is sad to note that for 22 years they have not said mass in the church at Jászó, due to renovation. He will show the church, the abbey, and the nearby valleys to ALG when he visits Jászó. Hungarian
• CALG 12/29.02 Letter : Bartal Károly Tamás to ALG 1995/0103

He foresees that the recompensation process will take a long time. But the renovation of the library's ceiling is in progress. Károly also hopes that the Order will get back the properties at Lelesz as wonderful old frescos were found in its church. If everything goes well the sorority at Jászó will recover again in a couple of years. He asks ALG to include them in his prayers. Hungarian
