He has received only yesterday McMahon's letter of the 7th. He is in full sympathy with the scheme. As the plan is somewhat indefinite he can hardly give a positive promise but should the committee call on him for some lectures on ethics he would try to comply. It would be well to let him know how many lectures and whether they are to be scientific or popular, as he will have to make adaptations. :: I-1-j - A.L.S. - 1p. - 4to. - {1}

Scope and Contents It is true that Funk and Wagnalls have been unfriendly to Catholics and Holaind consented to correct the blunders in the definition of Catholic words to keep Dr. (Edward) McGlynn or some other enemy of Archbishop (Michael Augustine Corrigan) from obtaining control of that department of the Dictionary. Not more than $100 has been promised. Dr. Funk and others have treated him with great consideration. P.S. When the dictionary is completed, it will have cost very nearly one million dollars....

As to the winter school, he thinks McMahon has taken a big contract since those at New London are all teaching and cannot write lectures every month. He himself has lectures in ethics at Georgetown. The lecture he will give at Georgetown would hardly answer McMahon's purposes. As to music he does not have books at Woodstock, but others at St. Francis Xavier would. Father (Alfred) Young, C.S.P. probably could write...

Scope and Contents He would give McMahon some of his Georgetown lectures but they had to be toned down to be understood for his audience of young lawyers. McMahon should not be surprised if the professors treated him coldly on the question of preparing extra lectures. If McMahon needs others, he has Holaind's one lecture and he can give some of his Georgetown lecture and he can give some of his Georgetown lectures. It would have been better to be sure of the amount of help before announcing anything. :: I-1-j...
