 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-1-o

Scope and Contents

He was glad to read McMaster's account of the riot and his castigation of Hoffmann and the commendation of the Mayor. Boston papers have done much to stir up religious animosity. He sends clippings from the "Respectable Daily" which was once their firm friend, but has changed hands. Enclosed are clippings of the Boston Daily Advertiser of July 12, 14, 17, and 18, 1871; all the clippings are editorials denouncing the part the Catholic Church plays in controlling the officials of New York City, its public schools, and its part in the riots following a parade of Orangemen. :: I-1-o A.L.S. 1p. 4 clippings 12mo.
