Takken, Father William, Holland Town, Wisconsin, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1879 March 10

 Item
Identifier: CMMA I-2-c

Scope and Contents

Takken sends $6. for the Freeman's Journal. He intended to send the fee earlier and was roused into doing it by the notice in the Freeman of the censure of the paper by Bishop Peter Joseph Baltes of Alton, Illinois. His approval lies entirely behind McMaster. The previous week several of the priests of the diocese of Green Bay, Wisconsin at the funeral of Father Albert Wubbels of Little Chute, Wis. agreed that McMaster and his principles should be endorsed, and Father Ferdinand Tanguay even secured some new subscribers among them. These priests all encourage McMaster to continue his fight. Takken's parish of English farmers already subscribe to the Catholic Citizen of Father George L. Willard, or else he could get more Journal subscribers among them. :: I-2-c A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
