Identifier: CMMA I-2-g

Scope and Contents

When the Freeman's Journal came, instead of the costly advertisement she had suggested was an article by McMaster which was worth a hundred advertisements. For as a swift result of the generous article a young man, Edward James Cramsic, came for a copy of "Pilgrims and Shrines". His father was one of McMaster's old subscribers. The young man made his first Communion under the private instruction of Father Henneberry, one of the curates of St. James under Archbishop Riordan. He gave up his fiance for his religion, and supports the Catholic schools although he never attended one. He is one of those formed under the influence of the Freeman's Journal. She has not received the photographs of McMaster's daughters. She does not like to hurry him, but urges him not to forget them. She wishes him a happy Christmas. :: I-2-g A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
