Onahan, William J., Chicago, Illinois to "Father John W. Cavanaugh, C.S.C.", Notre Dame, Indiana, 1909 October 29

This letter on which he writes will interest Cavanaugh. The writer overestimated Onahan's resources; it is out of the question for him to aid. Some friend of Notre Dame might be willing to do so with Cavanaugh's approval. Note: This message was written on a letter from the Arthur H. Clark Company, of Cleveland, Ohio to Onahan, telling of the necessity of making available much of the important material relating to the early history of the country that is hidden away in the various Archives in Spain and in the private collections of the various religious orders, particularly the Augustinians and Jesuits. Arthur Clark wants to send Dr. James A. Robertson to Spain to prepare the manuscripts for publication. Clark wants Onahan to maintain Robertson in Spain. He gives details of the proposition and Robertson's qualifications. :: XI-2-i L.S.(Typed) 5pp.
