McGinniss, John P., New Orleans, Louisiana, to Father John Timon, C.M., Barrens, Missouri, 1828 July 8
Scope and Contents
He received Timon's edifying letter. Elizabeth is in good health. They had a letter from Father saying that he arrived safe at St. Louis and found the relatives in good health. The Rev. Mr. Manout, Father Constantine Maenhaut is in good health. Mr. Linn is in good health. They are repairing the church. Manout gives a fine sermon every Sunday. Lauran Dow is in this place; he made a speech last night but McGinniss did not attend. Dow says he is going to St. Louis to convert the people to the right way. If Timon sees an old man, under ordinary size, with a long beard and Methodist looking face, he may be sure that this is another Wolfe sic in sheep's clothing. Elizabeth has something to say on the other side.` A.L.S.` Written on the same paper:
