The Georgetown people think Egan should have put "Preludes" out for their building. Egan has great admiration for the Jesuits but they do not turn out as good Catholics as the Holy Cross Fathers. Their students are men of the old world. Should Egan write the circular? Johnson, who runs "Scribners", declares he can do no more good for Egan now, than Stedman did, in June of "Songs and Sonnets." Egan is trying to work something so "Scribners" will give an article on Notre Dame. The "Liverpool News" gives a notice next week and Mr. Hickey gave "Preludes" a notice. The Ave Maria is improving. Egan is glad he is again with a Catholic paper. Egan likes Colonel Alexander I. Dallas although he believes Dallas was slightly hurt by the criteria of his manuscripts. :: X-2-f A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo
