Finotti, Father Joseph, 1856 December
Scope and Contents
"Reflections and suggestions in regard to what is called the Catholic Press." Proofs from the "Metropolitan," Baltimore, Maryland, Vol. IV, no. 11 given to Finotti by John Gilmary Shea, Dec. 2, 1872—the corrections are in Archbishop John Hughes' hand, Finotti thinks. Proofs included with notes. Finotti notes that to understand these proofs, John R. Hassard 's life of Hughes must be read. The speech is republished in Kehoe's collection of Hughes' works. Aequitas published an answer to this in the New York Times January 6, 1857. Father John McElroy, S.J . when accused of writing the answer said he was too old for that. Rev. John Bryce denied that he wrote it but said it contained his sentiment. Finotti thinks that Thomas D'Arcy McGee wrote it. 9 Galleys and 1 page of notes by Finotti Attached is a copy of the Aequitas letter in the handwriting of Father Joseph Finotti:
