Identifier: CMMA I-2-d

Scope and Contents

For many years, Father Orengo has subscribed to the Freeman's Journal both in America and in Italy. Since 1874, he has celebrated 12 Masses annually for James Alphonsus McMaster the editor, in return for the paper. Three years ago, he was removed to the Province of the Dominicans of common life and at that time notified McMaster that he could no longer say the twelve Masses but could say but four, the paper was discontinued. Recently the paper has again been sent to him but badly addressed to Father Orenzo instead of Orengo, and to Taigi instead of Taggia. If the editor is satisfied to send the paper in return for the 4 Masses, he will gladly say them but cannot add any more. He is writing from San Remo where he is instructing poor shepherds and peasants, who cannot afford a larger salary for him than 4 francs weekly. He sends this correct address and also his gratitude to James Alphonsus McMaster. In the James Alphonsus McMaster Papers :: I-2-d A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
