Hayes, Father Robert J., St. Louis, Missouri, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1870 January 6

 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-1-n

Scope and Contents

Hayes has received two copies of the Freeman's Journal. He had instructed McMaster to send one copy to him and one to his brother who is in Rome, studying for the priesthood. If Hayes must send the copy to Rome himself, he asks that one of his two subscriptions be cancelled, for six or ten days would be lost in the process of sending the paper to St. Louis and back again to New York. He requests a personal note from McMaster telling him whether he was sent two copies of the paper by clerical error or design. Hayes calls attention to an error. Under the tile "Nashville Correspondence" was published a letter, signed "X.Y.Z.", which is unmistakably the work of Alex. J.P. Garesche . The title of "Western Rome" or "Rome of the Western world" is a word St. Louis guards jealously and would never allow to escape to Nashville. He gives some mailing instructions and his brother's address at Rome. :: I-1-n A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
