Number 1753. Under the secret of the Holy Office. The books published by Henry George were examined by the Supreme Congregation of the Holy Inquisition on Wednesday February 6, 1889 and it was decided that Corrigan should be notified that they were found worthy of condemnation. Because of the circumstances of the times and the great care that the American Prelates of the United States exercise to keep their flocks from errors, the Congregation decided that the condemnation would not be announced. They are sure that Corrigan and the other American bishops would take care that the Catholic doctrine on private property be held as it has been defined by Pope Pius IX and Pope Leo XIII in their encyclicals as against the false theories of Henry George. Corrigan is to convey this decision to his suffragans under the secret of the Holy Office. Archbishop Domenico Jacobini signs as secretary. :: I-1-i Printed D.S. Latin 1p. 4to.
