Scannell, Richard Bishop of:
Omaha, Neb(raska)
to (William J.) Onahan:
(Chicago, Illinois)
Scannell has just returned from a trip through Greeley County, Nebraska. He calls Onahan's attention to the unsatisfactory state of affairs in Spalding, (Nebraska). There is trouble in obtaining title to property outside a six block limit, for the Colonization Society. Because of this, efforts to extend a railroad have not succeeded. The new Church is on land to which it has no title. If, as Scannell understands, the Society always intended to deed the town site to the Bishop for the benefit of the Congregation, then Onahan should act, since delay is adding to hardship.

Guichainville has received Brownson's package and the invoice which he is forwarding to the treasurer.

He has made two discoveries which will probably interest Brownson as well as Tarducci. Guichainville wonders if Tarducci is familiar with an illustrated book entitled Nova typis transacta navigatio, novi orbis Indiae occidentalis ad modum reverendissimorum by Le P. Honorius Philoponus, O.S.B., Order S. Ben Monacha 1621 Erat Christophorus Columbus Etc., and another book entitled "Introduction a la Geographic Etc.", by N. De Fers, Paris 1717. The map of the world is illustrated with nine insets with pictures of R.P. Cavilli (sic). De la Saile Francois, Campierre Anglois, Magellan Portuguais, Drac Anglois, Christophe Colomb Geneois, Amerique Vespuce Florenti, Marc Paul Venetien, Guillaume Schouteu Hollondais. Columbus is strangely represented in that group. These two books are in the Club's library. Guichainville pays his respects to Brownson.

He received Seton's letter of the 19th and is pleased at his interest in his work on the subject of early book plates. As to what Mr. Hardy says in regard to the date of their plates, Allen does not find the statement Seton quotes. The old Seton plate by Maverick was probably dated about 1790. Maverick had a shop in New York around 1787; he was then about 32. If Seton will send a print for a description he will include it in his book.

McQuaid received (Corrigan)'s letter, and also one from (Ella B.) Edes. She thought that Dr. F( ) was not as shrewd as (Corrigan) thought he was. In his last letter McQuaid alluded to Msgr. (Francis) Satolli's refusal to come to Rochester to assist at the dedication of St. Bernard's Seminary. McQuaid directed Father (Edward J.) Hanna to express the pain Satolli's accusations gave. When Satolli was at (Corrigan)'s house he wrote in quite a different strain. Last week Hanna received a letter from him and he said he would be in Rochester about Nov. 10. About that time the first candidate from the Seminary for priesthood would be ready and Satolli could confer the sacrament. McQuaid is not going to Buffalo. (Bishop Stephen Ryan)'s organ had a shameful attack on McQuaid a week after July 12, regarding the celebration. McQuaid holds Ryan responsible of his tool's work. (Father Richard E.)
