Power, Thomas M., Saugerties,, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1877 December 10
Scope and Contents
Power praises McMaster for his work on the Freeman's Journal. He asks for 5 copies of the paper containing the appeal for patrons to be sent to him. One is to be sent to the Wolf Tone Literary Society, and another to the Father Mathew Society. If McMaster sends them this week's number they will be able to read the pulpit oration of Father Thomas Burke. The sermon concerned Nans Neagle, whose relatives were old friends of Powers? These societies would also like back copies of Burke's sermons on the family of Ligauri and on the families of Moriarity and Bishop Fitzgerald, of Ross? The uncle of Bishop Fitzgerald Bishop Keane of Cloyne was a friend of Powers' in Ireland and was the Cardinal McClosky of his day in that country. Now Tom Croke, and Tom Burke can share that honor. Powers wishes he could speak to McMaster about McMahon of France who represents piety and religion just as well as Gambetto, Jules Simoit, and Grevy, the Satanic trio of Communists represent infidelity and hell. He compliments McMaster on his hit at the worn out Dukes. :: I-2-b A.L.S. 6pp. 12mo.
