CZCC Howes Goldsborough: Manuscripts
- C.C. Lancaster to Howes Goldsborough 1874/11/03
Lancaster received Goldsborough's and Mr. Rhodes' valuation of the land. He will now send it to the Bishop.
- C.C. Lancaster to Howes Goldsborough 1874/11/05
Lancaster wrote a few lines on the 3rd by Fr. Gubitosi. Lancaster encloses a memorandum of the two tracts bought at St. Joseph's. The first tract was deeded to John Lewis. The other was bought by Rev. Joseph Mosely. Fr. Powers sold 23 acres of land to William Callaghan, and this is the only sale Lancaster has knowledge of. Lancaster asks Goldsborough to check the records in the clerk's office for any other sales. Mr. Foley has received the letter from Mr. Rhodes and has sent it to the Bishop. Lancaster is sorry to hear that Goldsborough is sick. He sends his respects to Mrs. Goldsborough.
- C.C. Lancaster to Howes Goldsborough 1874/11/14
Lancaster has been searching records. Fr. John Lewis died in 1788 leaving all his property to Fr. Robert Molyneux, and the latter gave over 207 acres of land in 1793 to the Corporation of the Roman Catholic Clergymen. Fr. James Walton, the heir of Fr. Mosely, gave over 147 acres. The corporation should still have all the land save for the 23 acres sold to William Callaghan by Fr. Powers. If any more land was sold, it should be recorded at Easton. From a letter received from Mr. Foley, it seems that Fr. Gubitosi misunderstood the Bishop with regard to having the land appraised. Lancaster sends his respects to Mrs. Goldsborough.
- Thomas A. Becker to Howes Goldsborough 1875/03/10
Becker received a letter from Dr. Charbonnier asking that a resident priest be stationed in Easton. Becker intends to visit Easton to see the house that has been prepared for the priest. He asks Goldsborough to let him know whether there are vestments and a chalice in Easton.

- Thomas A. Becker to Mrs. Goldsborough 1875/05/12
Becker agrees with Goldsborough's observations. He would have liked to make arrangements with Fr. Henehy to go down to Dorchester, but Henehy would not receive Becker's note in time. Should Goldsborough happen to see Henehy, he is to tell him that Becker forwarded some letters and hopes to go to Dorsett in his company.
- C.C. Lancaster to Howes Goldsborough 1875/06/30
Lancaster sends 10 gallons of wine which he considers to be very good. Mr. Schmidt, the owner of the vinyard, is very successful with the native varieties of grape.
- Edward J. Sourin to Howes Goldsborough 1876/03/10
Sourin was sorry to see Goldsborough's family sick. Goldsborough's friends will be glad to hear that Mr. and Mrs. Goldsborough's health has improved. Sourin saw Fr. Curtis, and the latter will pay Goldsborough a visit next summer. Mr. Lancaster would like to pay a visit too. Sourin sends his respects to Miss Jarboe and to Miss Winter. He encloses some pictures for them. Should Goldsborough see Fr. Henehy, he is to tell him that Sourin will forward his breviary to Queenstown at his earliest convenience.
- Edward Sourin to Howes Goldsborough 1876/08/12
Sourin has made known Goldsborough's desire to Fr. Superior, but it does not seem that Sourin will soon be permitted to visit Eastern Shore again. There are rumors of another priest's being appointed to share Fr. Henehy's work. Sourin offers Goldsborough some words of encouragement and urges him and Mrs. Goldsborough to receive Communion soon. He sends his respects to Mrs. Goldsborough and to Miss Winter. It would be contrary to the wishes of the Provincial, Fr. Keller, were anyone to come to get Sourin on the 27th to take him to Easton.
- Edward Sourin to Howes Goldsborough 1876/0824-
Up until this morning Sourin had entertained the hope that he might visit Easton this Sunday. He sees now that it will be impossible to do so. He encourages Goldsborough to pray for perseverance and to receive communion. Sourin learned from the papers of the death of Mr. Buchanan. He met the family often during the illness of Jefferson Buchanan. Mr. Lancaster sends his respects. Sourin sends his respects to Mrs. Goldsborough.
