Identifier: CRCL I-2-n

Scope and Contents

Foley was disabled by an accident some three weeks and deferred thanking Clarke for his excellent defense of Maryland's original claims of civil and religious toleration. If Gladstone or any other gentleman wants to learn the true history of Catholic Maryland, they can find it in Clarke's work. Clarke has done a great service to truth and to Maryland. Foley does not intend that his biography be in Clarke's next volume of "The Deceased Prelates". Some persons have asked Foley why Clarke omitted Bishop Anthony O'Regan from his "Lives". Was it because Clarke found nothing to say of O'Regan, or because he resigned and transferred to Dora? He thinks Clarke omits Bishop Guy Ignatius Chabrat . Foley tells Clarke where he might obtain a copy of a pamphlet containing the view of Gladstone in a paper given before the Maryland Historical Society, published by the late Honorable John P. Kennedy. The pamphlet was answered by Bernardarry U. Campbell . If Clarke has not seen them, Charles I. White of Washington can supply them or John Murphy of Baltimore or the Baltimore Historical Society. Foley lost his books in the fire. Foley hopes to see Clarke's writings when the new quarterly spreads its pages. :: I-2-n A.L.S. 4p. 8vo.
