Manly, M.E., New Berne, North Carolina, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1873 April 17

 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-1-o

Scope and Contents

He tells McMaster that Father J.M. Townsend of this parish is on an excursion through the Middle States asking help for his parish. If he should go as far north as New York, he asks McMaster to offer advice in furtherance of his object. He recommends Father Townsend to McMaster and commends him for his education, zeal and excellent morality, which entitle him to a high social position and confidence. Manly adds his approbation to what McMaster has been saying in the Journal upon, "Our Lord is With Thee". This version of the Angels Salutation is objectionable to him as it dwarfs the grandeur of the announcement. The expression Our Lord instead of The Lord in homilies and prayers is an appropriation to ourselves of the Deity and he does not object to it. He prefers in the Announcement of the Incarnation to have the astounding grandeur of the idea implied by, "The Lord". He hopes that McMaster will continue in his good work. :: I-1-o A.L.S. 1p 8vo. 1p 12mo.
