Shea thanks Clarke for his reply to Gladstone and for a copy of the separate edition. Shea seldom reads controversy and has not read the Gladstone tractate. He asks if Clarke had not shamefully misquoted him. Shea questions Clarke's interpretation of Gladstone's idea of the Blessed Virgin and original sin. Clarke has demolished completely the structure he raised from Neill and Allen. Shea does not think that Gladstone will come to this country for illustration for his arguments. He evidently thought no one cared or knew anything of our history. Shea asks Clarke if he knew of any positive authority attributing the name Maryland in honor of Henriette Marie. Shea does not believe so. The Latin form Terra Mariae would apply only to the Blessed Virgin. No one would think of applying it to any Henrica Marie. Lord Baltimore called his earlier colony in Newfoundland Avalon, the English spot where Joseph of Arimathea was believed to have founded his first church. Spanish maps that Baltimore may have seen called Chesapeake Bay Mary's Bay. Shea thinks the question worth study. :: I-2-n A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
