England sends Brute employments enough and hopes he will not be displeased. Accompanying this is a pamphlet of 80 pages by a Thomas Grimke, one of their state senators. England is a member of the same society and will deliver the next ration in May. He was not present when this was delivered and will not attack it as a member of the society. The production as unphilosophical and tasteless must not go unnoticed. The Miscellany is the place to keep him on the pillory for some months and Brute is the one best fitted to supply England with the materials. He will not give it a regular review but worry him by cossack assaults week after week. England sees a thousand faults and a thousand ways of upsetting him. His wants are 1. extensive knowledge of the history of literature, 2. want of books. His object is to prove that the author is 1 very ignorant 2 that Catholics before and the Reformation did much more for literature than their opponents. This will bring down what Cobbett's call the impudence of Protestant pride and the little bits might be put together in a book. England is not well. He could not say Mass Thursday and fears he will have to take medicine tonight and be unable to say Mass tomorrow. He submits to the will of God. During his sickness he has read for first time Montosal's life of Sister Margaret Bourgois and wishes he had her spirit of piety but he forgets himself too much. He asks Brute to ask Father Michael Burgo Egan who is nephew of the Bishop Michael Egan whether he can furnish a memoir of his uncle. They should not lose the means of preserving their little history. He wishes also a history of Emmitsburg and St. Mary's. :: II-3-o - A.L.S. - English - 2pp. 4to. 1 3
