Ireland, Bishop John, St. Paul, Minnesota, to John O'Kane Murray, Brooklyn, Long Island, 1882 October 27
Scope and Contents
Ireland would be delighted to see Murray residing in St. Paul. Minnesota is a most healthful country. They have no malaria of any kind. In St. Paul with a population of 65,000, the Catholics form one-third, English-speaking Catholics one-sixth. They have two Catholic physicians - Dr. McDonald from Canada and Dr. Dwyer, formerly of Brooklyn. Catholics are well-to-do, rapidly increasing in numbers. Catholics, as a rule, prefer a Catholic physician. Minneapolis is about equally populous with St. Paul, with a somewhat relatively smaller Catholic population. Ireland advises Murray to visit and Study St. Paul before taking any final step. :: I-1-d A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
