Guichainville, le Metayer de, New York, N.Y., to Henry F. Brownson, Detroit, Michigan, 1891 November 5

 Item
Identifier: CBRH III-3-d

Scope and Contents

Guichainville again criticizes W. E. Curtis. Curtis has gone to see the autograph and has reiterated that Guichainville's autograph is a forgery—detached from a book. He asks Brownson what he thinks of it and says that he himself would like to see such a forgery on a parchment. The learned Ponce de Leon has been more exact: the two letters which are in Tarducci should be in Genes. Could there be the possibility of a third letter? That would make three, one in the U.S. and two in Genes. He criticizes the Americans for their attitude and action toward this work. He plans to send the autograph to his native country where it will receive its due respect. He also has little hope for his work in the Catholic Missions to Central America under the protection of the United States. He mentions the work of his son in this connection and despairingly says that it is very discouraging to bring things of great value into the United States. The Club is increasing. He assures Brownson of his kind regards and desire to see him. :: III-3-d A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
