Shea, John Gilmary, Elizabeth, New Jersey, to Father James H. McGean, New York, New York, 1889 March 4

 Item
Identifier: CJSH II-2-o

Scope and Contents

Shea is still confined to bed and chair, and now he finds that the Leslie establishment is to move next month. Shea has some materials at the office which he would appreciate having stored in McGean's garret or cellar until the U.S. Catholic Historical Society has an abiding habitation. Unless McGean proposes to dispense with all reports, the Committee on Publications is to make one. Shea has recently gotten hold of Bishop John England 's diary for his first two years at Charleston. Shea is amazed at the extent of his work, and has a higher opinion of Bishop England than he ever entertained. Is it possible that they can not find an eloquent Bishop, priest, or Layman to produce a grand discourse on him? If not, more shame to them all. :: II-2-o A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.
