Alemany invited a few Jesuits to work in the city educating Catholic boys. They had a small school and charged too much. They are gathering members in confraternities even from other parishes. The secular priests are alarmed because they are saddled with parish debts and are forbidden to collect pew rent. Alemany asks Purcell's advice as to what to do. ` P.S. Judge Peter Burnett lately saw his son converted. :: II-5-b A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
