McCormick has often admired Clarke's historical and critical sketches in the Catholic World. He never knew Clarke's address until he saw it recently attached to a call for a historical society in New York. Knowing Clarke's historical interest, McCormick takes the liberty of sending Clarke a copy of his "History of the Catholic Church in Trenton". It was a crude sketch intended to provoke criticism before its appearance as a book. This it has done and the completed work will bring up local history to the present day. McCormick hopes it will be worthy of Clarke's perusal. :: I-2-n A.L.S. 1p. 4to.
