Having written some time past, Rattigan awaited Timon's letter or the return of Bishop Simon Gabriel Bruté and still under $12 per month, which is hard. Father Stephen H. Montgomery has this day returned from New York and met with Bruté who told him he did not know how to fix half the young men he has with him. Rattigan hopes Timon will admit him, if all should fail to return. Rattigan will go to Louisville to await Timon's answer. He asks Timon to forget the past., P.S. He sends his respects to Mr. and Mrs. Dealy, Mrs. Mulligan, Madam Headen Mrs. Sarah Hayden?, the Community and seminarians, Father Oreily and all the Brothers. :: IV-3-j A.L.S. 3pp. 4to.
