Young, Father Nicholas R., West Liberty, Ohio, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, of Cincinnati, Ohio, 1869 April 14

He regrets that his expectations have not been realized and he is unable to meet notes that are fast falling due. He is somewhat disheartened but he must make new and more vigorous efforts. He proposes that Purcell sanction his visit to one of the larger English-speaking churches in Cincinnati one Sunday in May. One of his notes for $1000 is due the first of June, so he must work fast. Perhaps Purcell can suggest the best mode of procedure. He also plans on giving a lecture and concert the middle of May in the hall just completed in West Liberty. Miss Jeannie Sullivan and other members of the Cathedral Choir have volunteered their services. He requests Purcell to give the lecture, or if he cannot come, he asks if Father Edward Purcell or Bishop Sylvester Rosecrans can make it. He is well satisfied with the earnestness of his congregation. He visits Kenton on alternate Sundays and regularly visits his stations in Hardin Count. He is expecting the arrival of his sister. :: II-5-d A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
