Identifier: CMNT II-3-n

Scope and Contents

Grassi avails himself of the opportunity of Mr. Chassing leaving for Baltimore to send Bruté the Memoria Academia of Father John Andres. He says little about the young man. If Father Paquet obtained very little from so indolent a character no wonder that his stay at Georgetown has not improved him. On the arrival of Mr. Baxter he hopes that it will be useful about the article in Portico and for the college. Grassi is disappointed about his hopes for Father Benjamin Fenwick but when he was ready to start he was called into court in a case of the Catholic trustees against the paper Exile. He asks how things are going in France as he has not heard. He said two Masses on Easter Sunday and Monday because there are only 2 priests in the college. :: II-3-n A.L.S. 2pp. 4to., 4
