Scope and Contents

The Brownson Club, an organization composed of Catholic Men, young and old, of this city, wishes to get a portrait of Crestes A. Brownson for its clubrooms. Dr. J. B. Enright has placed in Cassilly's hands a letter received from Brownson, dated March 1, 1886, in which Brownson states that he has a photograph of his father, from which which an artist might paint a likeness, with a few hints as to color. The Club would like to borrow this photograph for copying or to buy a copy of it if copies are available. If not are available, the greatest care will be taken of the photograph, and the artist will write for suggestions as to color. Cassilly would like to know whether a Life of Dr. Brownson exists, whether it can be purchased, and at what price. The Club has an old edition of his Essays in ten or twelve volumes. :: III-3-b A.L.S. 1p. 8vo.
