to (James Alphonsus McMaster):

James received enclosed in his paper last mail a bill for a subscription to (McMaster's) paper. As he has no U.S. Currency on hand, he will not be able to pay at once. Soon after the confederate army of which he was a member was defeated he took up the coffee planting business in Guatemala. The "Freeman's Journal" gives him the only glimpes of the Catholic world.

Sykes, Macrae:
Sing Sing, New York
to (James F. Edwards):
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
He is glad that Edwards is able to be up today. Sykes' dear friend General (George B.) McClellan died on the 29th. McClellan got him his appointment to West Point. He tells how the general valued his father's friendship. There are only a few of his father's friends left. Secretary of State (Edwin M.) Stanton and John Pope were the only enmies his father had. It seems queer that Sykes' roommate should lose his uncle, Cardinal (John) McCloskey, and that Sykes should lose his friend. He had a letter from (John W.) Guthrie who is working in the office of a Mr. Hinricks, at Carroll, (Iowa). Sykes is dying to have some ice-skating.

(Maes), Bishop Camillus Paul:
Covington, K(entuck)y
to Father (Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.):
Notre Dame, (Indiana)
Maes sends an article he received from Europe which he thinks ought to be translated and published in the Ave Maria. He thinks Butler's treatise on Purgatory a fitting paper for one of Hudson's "Ave Maria Series". Maes requests that Hudson have the first five articles of the series bound and sent to him. He accepted two lectures in Detroit, because he is driven to get money. Hudson must have noticed the trick Father (Ralph) Dewey, S.J., played on Maes, writing for some notes to complete his own, then published them crudely.

Cassidy, M.A.:
St. Michel, Lonesdale
to (James Alphonsus) McMaster:
(New York, New York)
A short time ago Cassidy discovered some persons interested in the Indian Missions, among whom were Bishop (Martin) Marty and Father Stephan. Everyone agreed that the Freeman's Journal should be enlisted in the cause. She was asked to prepare some papers but as the Freeman's Journal should be enlisted in the cause. She was asked to prepare some papers but as the Freeman has scores of correspondents with more knowledge on Indian affairs than she, she will leave it up to them. One of McMaster's friends prompted her to write him on the subject. She is going to move into town about the middle of December. Father Stephen told her that there is no question of the "Indiana Bureau" now but they still need schools.

to J(ohn Alphonsus McMaster):
Buffalo, N.Y.
Gallagher was wrapping the lists with the intention of sending them when John's letter came. He sent them as soon as possible, and hopes John did not have to lose time waiting for them. Gallagher is sending printed envelopes to Erie, Pa., because second class matter travels slower than letters. John's father asks that John send him his address in advance; if he comes back tonight Gallagher will tell him to write John at Erie. Gallagher knows that it is not always easy for John to know where he will be four or five days in advance, but when he does know where he will be he should tell them. Bishop (Bernard J.) McQuaid, Rochester, (New York), has remitted $9.00 and John has been credited for his commission. P.S. Gallagher is sending two printed envelopes.

He will bring the "Mystery of Wilyard Clip" to Robert next week. Aunt Griffin's book shows her to have some fancy, but not a well balanced mind. Sally (Sarah Redwood Parrish Seton) thinks some of the pieces too silly to be read. Hattie Parrish is devouring Cardinal Newman's life and letters. William received a letter from ((E)liz- (abeth Seton) Yesterday. Nina (Prime) has been ill but is recovering. He also had a letter from Harry. Tomorrow Dr. Lee celebrates the 22nd anniversary of his marriages; Sally and William dine there.

(Gallagher), John (J.):
New York, (New York)
to J(ohn Alphonsus McMaster):
Erie, Pa.
John's letter, his return lists, and his ($100.00) came in together. Gallagher sympathizes with John in his attempt to reach Rexville, (New York) from Andover, (New York), and warns John not to invite pneumonia. Gallagher is sorry John was delayed waiting for the lists of Buffalo, but explains that he had not expected John to reach Buffalo so soon. He would sent the lists weeks ahead, but he desires to have them as correct as possible before sending, and the subscribers often remit just before the agent calls. Also, the lists, if they were sent far ahead, might fall into the hands of a "sharper" who would collect the bills under false pretenses. The elections in New York were a great surprise. Old Tammany is once more on top, and both Gallagher and (James Alphonsus McMaster) are well pleased. The (Freeman's Journal) office was closed Election Day, and they had a chance to do some electioneering. Gallagher tried to get his friend ( ) McGoldrick elected, but is sorry to say he was beaten. McGoldrick had been deprived of the regular Tammany nomination through trickery and fraud. All the folks are well. John's father will think John has been working too hard when he sees the $100.00. Gallagher asks John once more to send his address in advance if at all possible (Maurice Francis) Egan has just returned from a visit to Washington. Cain is the some as usual, and J.K. is holding his own. Joe and Jack Keiley stop in occasionally and ask for John P.S. C. Farnicorn, Headville, Pa., has remitted $2.50 and should be credited.

Gallagher's children and even his wife have the (w)hooping caugh, which he thinks not dangerous, but rather beneficial, since it develops the lungs. It is a nuisance, however, and as it lasts nearly three months, Gallagher faces the prospect of jumping out of bed a dozen times each night for the next seven weeks. The balance of the Ohio list will be sent as soon as John asks for it. Gallagher would say that it be sent to Youngstown, (Ohio), but will hold it until John tells him where to send it. He is sending papers to Franklin today. (P.S.) Father (Joseph M.) S(ch)wartz called at the office the very day John was at Northeast, (Pennsylvania).

Captain Henpel asked him to thank Ford for the interest in the case of Patrick Ginley. Henpel was second in the examination for the weighership, but was delighted that O'Brien, one of the 69th came out first. Henpel mingles more with the Irish than with those of his own nationality. He speaks of the interpretation of a new civil service law, the actions of ( ) Eaton of Indiana. If Ford would print it he would write a letter on (William?) Saltonstall, fur trade, and the resurrection of the "Old Silver Guy" party. Saltonstall spoke for (John) Bell and (Edward) Everett in 1860, and denounced the Democratic party, and the ignorant and depraved class, the Irish, Mahan hissed the scandalous remarks. He discusses proofs and the book. He received a fine photograph of Lt. Col. Hanley.

Gallagher believes there is not another such employer as John's father in existence, who shares his employe's troubles, and is happy when they are. When Cain was sick, the kindness of John's father was not exceded even by Cain's father. Gallagher prays that he may be scared for many years, and that his reward may be eternal happiness. Gallagher remembers John's growing up, and how his resemblance to his father increased. It is still increasing, and Gallagher is happy to see this. His little boy is now out of danger, and they all feel happy. His son back want out and in the exhuberance of his joy blackened his cheek.

This was an out-mission of St. Rose's Convent attended for several years by the (Dominican) Fathers who had settled there in 1806. The priest referred to as having fallen sick was Father Robert Augier, (C.P.). one of the original four Fathers who came from England. The other three were Fathers Thomas Wilson, (C.P.). Raymond Tuite, (C.P.), and Fenwick. About 1817 or 1818 Augier returned by way of Ohio and Baltimore to England where he died some few years afterwards. All three were natives of England. Fenwick was descended of the oldest settlers of Maryland. Byrne has sent Ewing his translation of Father Monsabre's Meditations on the Holy Rosary.

They are to inquire after the Catholics at Newark, (Ohio) and on Owl Creek, (Ohio). He has heard the names of Majors, Logue, Arnold, Backers, and McKinsy. The Dittoes are to contrive to let them know that Fenwick is to be in the neighborhood for a week or so; also those on Walnut Creek, (Ohio). The priest who tended the upper counties has become sick so all his charge falls on Fenwick. He sends best wishes to the old lady, to all, old and young, but especially to Joseph Dittoe and family.
