He thanks Hudson for the letter of the 8th. He would like to know if the society has a building on north side Chicago suitable for a residence, which he might use. He would enjoy visiting Notre Dame but finds it impossible to do so very soon as he has to stay to get some business. The C.S.C. Congregation of Holy Cross has lots of business there and he hopes it will come to him after a while. He is very fortunate in having Mr. F.W.S. Brawley as his law partner. Brawley is one of the best lawyers in the city and has been practicing since 1847. Dunne is kept busy helping him on his pending cases and at present is preparing a case for the Supreme Court next term. Brawley told him he would have the job of abstracting the record in the case but that it would probably take him a week to do it. To show that he was "no slouch". Mr. Dunne finished the abstract in one evening, to Brawley's amazement. :: X-2-g A.L.S. 2pp. 4to.
