Carrier, C.S.C., Father Joseph C., St. Laurent College Montreal, Canada, to James F. Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana, 1887 November 29

Before long he hopes to procure for Edwards some volumes of the "Montreal Free Witness" which for more than 30 years was the only organ of the English Catholics of Canada and had for its editors such men as D'Arcy, McGee, Clerk. He will also try to obtain a set of "Montreal Daily Post", the only Catholic daily paper published on the American Continent in the English language. He sends now "The Spectator", a Catholic College paper published under his direction for a year or so. He urges Edwards to push the project of a fire-proof library building and museum to house his precious mementoes of Catholicity.
