When Father van der Eerden met Brownson in Chicago he asked him to find a genuine Dutchman to take part in the Catholic Congress and has at last found one who will be a credit to the Dutch and no discredit to the Congress, J.H.M. Wigman, an attorney of law of Green Bay, Wisconsin, president of the Catholic Knights of Wisconsin, commander of the order of St. Gregory, and stands high in the favor of Bishop Frederic Xavier Katzer of Green Bay. Father van der Eerden read a few days ago in a Catholic paper a suggestion to have a Catholic Congress, a new proof to him that the idea will find favor. He has spoken to Father James F. X. Hooffer, moderator of the Catholic Club of St. Louis, to write to William J. Onahan on the subject but he does not know whether he has as yet. All to whom he has spoken on the subject are very highly in favor of the proposed Congress. May God bless. Brownson's noble efforts in this good cause. :: III-3-c A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
