Webb, W Arch, Louisville, Kentucky, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1871 July 4

 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-1-o

Scope and Contents

He sends a copy of the Louisville Courier Journal containing an editorial on the Dollinger movement in Germany. The Courier Journal is extensively read by both Protestants and Catholics and has considerable influence. The editor responsible for the article knows the falsity of the article, and writes it for enjoyment of his subscribers, knowing that if he were not to publish such things his protestant friends would no longer believe in him. Knowing McMaster's zeal for the Church, Webb requests that McMaster notice this editorial and force the editor to answer. The paper also has a sermon by Rev. Mr. Eurhart of the Episcopal Church on the school question which Webb thinks is very good and sensible, no doubt brought about by the nomination of Hon. Benjamin J. Webb for the state senate, although his opponents used the school question against him. Catholics will not consent to taxation without representation. :: I-1-o A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
