 Item
Identifier: CBAY II-2-n

Scope and Contents

At McCaffrey's request, White has examined the improved edition of the catechism which McCaffrey sent. It appears in several respects better adapted to children than any of the previous catechisms, especially by the simplification of the phraseology. White thinks it is susceptible of further improvement, particularly in regard to method or arrangement, and accuracy of statement or explanation. White then gives his suggestions for improving the method of the catechism and its accuracy. White submits these to McCaffrey's superior judgment and with the compliments of the season. ` This is a copy of White's letter to McCaffrey and is found in the papers of Bishop James Roosevelt Bayley. :: II-2-n Copy 3pp. Folio
