Rosati, C.M., Bishop Joseph, St. Louis, Missouri, to Father John Timon, C.M., Perryville, Missouri, 1832 January 9
Scope and Contents
If Timon has not sent the account of the ordination to the editor of the Telegraph, he is to send it as soon as possible. Timon is also to send an account of his establishment to the editor of the Catholic Repository, Boston, with a draft of the new church. He is afraid nothing has yet been done about this just as about the commission he gave Father Joseph Paquin to send Andrew to St. Mary's landing. Timon is to send Rosati the Directorium Chori to copy the different tunes in which several parts of the Mass and Office ought to be sung. He will add this to the book of ceremonies, which will be published in English. Rosati had lately the mortification of reading the complaints contained in the enclosed no enclosure, also a consequence of the exactitude with which his recommendations are executed. he has requested Colonel R. Paul to have it paid at Baltimore by his correspondent and Timon is to write to the editor not to continue, or, if Timon wants it, to direct the paper to St. Mary's Seminary. Nothing new here. The severity of the weather has checked everything. Timon is to tell Mr. Hase that if he would act as agent for the Telegraph, he might write to the editors. Mr. Houghan has written for a great number of Catholic books to Fielding Lucas, Jr. of Baltimore; he will sell them at the Baltimore retail price. Rosati sends regards to Fathers Olivier, Odin, Paquin, Brands, Loisel, Bonniot, Dupuy, Lefevere, and Van Cloostere, and all the seminarians, Brothers and Sisters., Although Rosati scolds him a little, Timon is not less dear to him. :: IV-3-i A.L.S. 3pp. 4to.
