Father Dutto, identifies himself as the writer of an anonymous letter signed "An Italian", and is glad he erred regarding the origin of Father Kirner's mission in New York. He has learned from McMaster's journal that Kirner's mission was legitimate, and states that if Bishop Michael Augustine Corrigan started the movement, he will love him more than any prelate except Bishop William Henry Elder. He explains that in his letter to McMaster he only wished to give some points that might be used, and thanks McMaster for using them. He corrects a mistaken impression regarding Memphis, stating that it has no Italian church, and begs McMaster to get some book or pamphlet on Father Kirner's mission for him. He asks that his name be kept secret from Father Kirner. :: I-2-e A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
