Onahan, William J., Chicago, Illinois, to Henry F. Brownson, Detroit, Michigan, 1889 June 17
Scope and Contents
Onahan sent his copy of the call received from Henry J. Spaunhorst to Archbishop John Ireland and has no objection to signing it. He agrees with Brownson that the names of the entire committee should be attached. If he remembers the terms of the call, the date for the meeting has been changed. He does not like the omission of the temperance and saloon question and regards it as one of the most important in the list of subjects—and he is not a "temperance crank" either. He would like to see it restored. The exacting nature of his official duties are such that it is very doubtful if he will be able to attend the Congress. No doubt he could write a paper on Immigration and Colonization but it is not certain he can be there to read it in person. :: III-3-c A.L.S. 1p. 8vo.
