Missuwe, Hennaert believes he can say with certainty that Missuwe has not compromised himself at all with any of the persons about whom they were concerned.

After writing to McFarland last week he learned that the city would likely be compelled to cease paying cash as a result of a judgment likely to be rendered against it. Hence the telegram for the bonds. Judgment was rendered against the city but an effort is made to have the case...

Scope and Contents Hennessy learned long since that Father Edward Dillon wished if possible to hurt him. When Hennessy left Halifax Nova Scotia and decided, in Boston, to stay in this country he saw by the Laity's Directory that Lefevere wanted priests. If Dillon's slander had had any effect on Lefevere, Hennessy was satisfied. Dillon accused Hennessy of saying that Bishop William Walsh of Halifax had been involved in a scandal with a woman and her two nieces who came to Halifax with him. Bishop Walsh had been...

After mature reflection, Hennessy has determined to resign his position in Lefevere's diocese and asks his permission to leave and be engaged elsewhere. He believes that Lefevere knows the reasons. It will grieve him much to make a new home and still more not to enjoy Lefevere's kindness. :: III-2-h A.L.S. 1p. 4to.

Scope and Contents Hennessy is disappointed that Lefevere does not tell him whether or not he accepts his former letter. He does not intend to leave without Lefevere's express consent.

Scope and Contents A priest's greatest enemies are those of his own house. Although Hennessy had written to Ireland a most exaggerated account of the missions in order to hinder any "hankering" his family may have had about America, his father came unexpectedly last Saturday and accused him of ingratitude. He suggested that his father go on to Illinois or Iowa but when his father cried he suggested that he go to the Rapids as the farthest point. His father has gone to the Rapids to buy a farm or two. His...

Scope and Contents Father W. Lockhart in his Life of Rosmini asserts in a note that Dr. Orestes A. Brownson towards the end of his life rejected the Philosophy of Gioberti and turned to that of Rosmini. Hennessy informed Father Lockhart of his error, but the latter replied that Dr. William Channing, son of the distinguished William Ellery Channing, had been told to study Rosmini, who, he said, had the true philosophy.
