 Item
Identifier: CBRH III-3-b

Scope and Contents

Borra has received Brownson's letter and books and sends in return the first two volumes of Professor Rossi's "Principii di Philosofia" a picture of Professor Rossi and some photographs and a medal blessed by the Pope. He is pleased that Brownson, like his father, admires Professor Rossi who is his professor of dogma at the Foreign Missions College. Borra is now completing his studies for the priesthood, after serving three years in the field artillery of Italian Army, in the hope of being sent to the missions in America. He would appreciate photographs for Professor Rossi and himself of Orestes A. Brownson. His translation of Brownsons Works WILL be slow, because he must devote a good deal of time to his seminary studies. :: III-3-b A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
