Thornbury sends the names of subscribers to the Freeman's Journal and also sends $100. Mr. James Doherty of Starucca Pa. claimed his bill was $1. too much per year but Thornbury pointed out to him that he could not take advantage of the $2. subscription fee since he had not remitted regularly for 8 years. Doherty's son, John, agreed with Thornbury on this matter. Several others made a similar claim. There are 60 heads of families in the parish who are willing and eager to support a resident priest but so far none can be obtained. Once a month on Thursday Mass is celebrated at Starucca, Pa. in a well built, paid for church. The people form a good and united congregation and an association of whom one third are Catholics has a good library in which books by Catholic authors predominate. Boyle O'Reilly has lectured for the society. Thornbury has quite a time convincing men who never read it that the Journal is not anti-Land League and anti-Irish. He lost some valuable time convincing two old subscribers of this but finally retained their subscriptions. :: I-2-d A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
