Seton has just received from Archbishop John Baptist Purcell the epitaph of Bishop Edward Dominic Fenwick O.P. . The "Cincinnati Telegraph" of August, 1871 had the following piece about it. It says the beautiful tablet is of black Kilkenny marble with appropriate inscriptions to Fenwick and Father Stephen Theodore Badin, first priest ordained in the United States. P.S. If Clarke cares to obtain the epitaphs of American bishops, Seton would be glad to write friends he has in nearly all dioceses. Seton feels this would not prolong the printing of the book as the epitaphs could be placed at the end of each volume or of the total work. He copies the inscription in Latin about Fenwick and Badin. :: I-2-n A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
