Scope and Contents

The matter Foy addresses to Blanc is known to 3 Archbishops and 5 Bishops and all the New York City clergy. During the repeal in Ireland, Foy wrote a letter in his capacity as repeal warden. The repeal association wrote to the clergy of Foy's parish about it and the curate, Father Philo Reilly, published it on the altar in a way that endangered Foy's life. Foy applied to Bishop James Brown of Kilmore who promised to set him right. P.S. Foy asks Blanc to pray to banish the devil from him and his three children. Foy will make this matter known in a way that will rid the earth of this iniquity. :: VI-2-a A.L.S. 4pp. 4to.
