Taylor, L.H., Niles, Michigan, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1877 July 2
Scope and Contents
Taylor has sent McMaster $3.00 for the Freeman's Journal, and $1.50 for the Indian Missions. He asks McMaster to publish the contribution plus another dollar. There seems to be indifference and apathy among the people there towards the Indian Missions. The enemies of the Church decoy the simple and half instructed into their errors of free thinking. Their particular prey are the compromising and liberal Catholics. One scheme widely used is to found fake patriotic societies, which are non-sectarian in character, and which sport red, white, and blue ribbons. They also use the fiction of temperance leagues to hire people from the church, and in Niles, they are alarmingly successful. :: I-2-b A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
