On receipt of Brownson's last letter Hennessy wrote to Archbishop Patrick John Ryan in reference to the article which Brownson prepared for the Review on the rights of property, and encloses his reply, which he asks Brownson to return. Anything Brownson may write for the Review and send to the Archbishop will be readily published. Hennessy told him it was a shame to have a man of Brownson's ability remaining unemployed. If the article on the rights of property has been mislaid, it should be rewritten and sent to the Archbishop. It is an article which could not fail to do great good. Hennessy is glad Brownson is to publish a volume of criticisms, which he had wished him to do. He is also looking forward to the work on philosophy. How scanty Catholic philosophy has been since the death of Orestes A. Brownson, and how wordy and obscure the work of the English Jesuits, and need reviewing! Brownson will be glad to learn that Hennessy is really well from his late nasal hemorrhage. :: III-3-d A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
