He thanks McMaster for his high opinion of him, remarking that it should, if possible, spur him on get more subscribers for the Freeman's Journal. He will celebrate a Mass for Saint Anthony of Padua on May 30, and thanks McMaster for the large honararium, but begs him, when sending intentions in the future, to give only the ordinary stipend. For his trouble in getting subscriptions he has been amply repaid on several occasions. When De Pauw gets to New York, where he has not been for four or five years, he will place himself into McMaster's care. He sends regards to McMaster's family. P.S. He encloses a note to McDewitt, the bookkeeper of McMaster, in which he lists the names of the subscribers. :: I-2-d A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
