Description

Holograph letter from Patrick Murphy, St. Joseph's Salford (England), to (Hagan). Glad that he liked his first attempts at the sermon notes; he did use one of Bonomelli's books. Arrangements for sending notes to Gill's as they are being written. Hoping the vice (Curran) can harness the powers of the 'Hibs' (Ancient Order of Hibernians) in the States. On his mission, commenting that most Catholics are Irish; wages are very low and attendance not good; those who went to America are much better off. There are few Italians – 'that is no loss. I never heard anybody saying a good word for them in America' (unclear).
