Clarke, Richard H., New York, New York, to James F. Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana, 1885 April 21

Clarke thanks Edwards for the generous sentiments expressed in his letter of April 18. Clarke has sent five of the volumes of the Catholic Almanac Edwards wanted. Clarke has written to his friends to assist in getting the portraits Edwards wants. Edwards might write to Father P. M. O'Regan of Chicago to get a picture of his uncle, Bishop Anthony O'Regan. Can Edwards help get volumes 6, 7, 8, 9, 13, 14, and 17 of the Freeman's Journal? P.S. He would be delighted to visit Notre Dame. He has been compelled to resign the presidency of the U. S. Catholic Historical Society as he felt the necessity of not endangering his health by undertaking too much. Would Father Hudson send Clarke the copy of the Ave Maria which contained the account of Father John Mayer 's conversion? :: XI-1-c A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
