The writer has received McMaster's acknowledgement for the club of subscribers for the year 1882. He is grateful for McMaster's praise of his efforts to secure subscribers for the Freeman's Journal and in sorry he could not secure more for such a truly Catholic Newspaper. The paper should be in every Catholic family. The new subscriber, Mr. Cunningham is no relation to the Cunningham, the dry goods merchant who lived there formerly. The Cunninghams McMaster refers to are bankers and brokers in Wall Street, McMaster has promised the writer some aid at any time he can help him so the writer asks McMaster to use his influence with Mr. Jamison, Superintendent of the Railway Mail Service to secure him a temporary appointment as a weigher of the mail which passes through the station. This mail is to be weighed for 60 days beginning in February and the one local agent already appointed cannot do it all alone and must have an assistant. The writer has been a baggage man at the station for 7 years and if he were able to secure this appointment it would not interfere with his other work in any way. :: I-2-d Lincomplete 2pp. 12mo.
