McCloskey has received word from the Vice Rector of the Roman College that Mr. Chorlton's health will make it necessary that he return home. Chorlton has written to McCloskey that only the advice of the physician has made him make this step. McCloskey agrees because Chorlton desires to finish in Rome and suggests that McFarland mention this to Chorlton's family. McCloskey thinks he will be able to enter at once into the Troy seminary or any other. McCloskey will see McFarland in a few days and asks that he take no steps about the College until then. He has had a satisfactory visit in the West where they do not fear, as in New York, the "Roman doctors." ` P.S. McCloskey includes a letter that Chorlton wrote to his parents which McFarland may read and send on as he thinks proper; also the one he wrote to McFarland. The "young novice" was Chorlton dressed in Monk's clothes. :: I-1-b A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
