The letter written by Teodosie sent to Dionisie (June 20, 1891): "We, the Macedonians do not have troubles with the Turks, but we actually have troubles with the Greeks, the Bulgarians and the Serbs who want to partition Macedonia… The Exarchate in Macedonia executes the most miserable duty, denying the Macedonian name and language…" Teodosie calls: "Macedonians - clerics, rise up against the Patriarchate and the Exarchate and unite yourselves under the protection of the Ohrid Archbishopric, your real mother-church" (Lj. Lape, "Selected Texts", Skopje, 1975)
