Egan is sending a sonnet, "The Knighthood of Today". He says that Hudson is putting new vigor into the Ave Maria.

He would like to spend a few of these hot days in the shade of Notre Dame. He informs Hudson, confidentially, that the Catholic Parent's Friend is soon going to suspend publication, as the editor wanted Lambing to take a share in it and have it published in the east, but he has lost enough on the Catholic public. :: X-2-d A.L.S. 2pp. crown 8vo.
