Walsh, Father Thomas, Trout River, New York, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1870 June 27

 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-1-n

Scope and Contents

Father Walsh writes McMaster to assure him that his letter offering $50 toward the testimonial to the Archbishop of Tuam should not be considered as a standard of offering, as has been misinterpreted by some priests. Walsh made this offer because he has know and loved the Archbishop, who taught him as a child and later ordained him priest. He sends the names of other subscribers who have contributed, to show the wide diversity in the amounts pledged. He lauds the Archbishop John McHale as being representative of the best of all that is Irish, and for his defense of the natives of Tuam. In a post-script, he asks that his subscription to the Journal now be sent to the address listed at the head of the letter. He hopes that McMaster will continue to publicize the testimonial. :: I-1-n A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
