The previous day McMaster received Arnoldi's letter of the 30th, but could not print it because his publication day had arrived. He will hold it until the next issue. He has already ordered Mr. Neale's advertisement removed from his columns and has dispatched a confidential clerk notifying Neale that he would break the business contract which the Freeman's Journal made with him. Neale showed the clerk a few letters Arnoldi had written him, and in the opinion of the clerk these letters were very compromising upon Arnoldi's characters. These letters, of a very threatening nature, have been secured and parts of them will be published if the truth requires it. The Journal will cooperate fully in exposing anyone who would sell spurious wine for use on the altar but will not allow itself to be used as a tool by a careless priest who sends for cheap wine, lets it spoil by improper handling, and then threatens the wine vender by means of the Cardinal and by Catholic newspapers. The intelligent clergy of the United States are readers of the Journal and Arnoldi's asking McMaster for a sample copy is not a respectful act. The news dealer is the one who usually renders this service. This copy appears to be the first draft of the letter. :: I-2-d A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
