Jones, W H., Denver, Colorado, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1874 January 6

 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-2-a

Scope and Contents

Although he has not met McMaster and does not subscribe to the Freeman, he is an occasional reader of it and an admirer of McMaster's independent editorials. In an article written about two months ago he was pleased to notice McMaster's comments on the injustice done to many charitable persons by the failure of "agift enterprise" under the patronage of Bishop Joseph P. Machelboeuf of Denver. The manager of the enterprise fled with some several thousand dollars, leaving the Bishop and Father Honoratus Bourion in an unpleasant position. Jones feels that it has seriously injured the Catholic Church in Denver. He encloses a circular that was sent out by the Enterprise and asks McMaster's advice for himself and several of his Protestant fellow-sufferers. :: I-2-a A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
