Clarke thanks Brownson for the information and suggestions contained in his letter of the 11th and will try to fix Eliza Allen Starr's lectures either before or after the Carroll Centennial. Archbishop William H. Gross informed him that the Catholic Lay Congress would assemble the week before the ecclesiastical celebration, November 4th. He would like information as to dates, so that he can arrange the time of the lectures, and since Miss Starr will be his guest she may also wish to attend the Centennial and he must keep the two apart in time. His brother-in-law, Thomas J. Semmes, has written about the Congress. He asks whether Brownson has seen Sebbie Co.'s first sections of the Illustrated History of the Catholic Church, and asks to be remembered to Mr. and Mrs. Moran. :: III-3-c A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.
