William J. Kinsley, New York City.

Volume Eight of the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society just at hand and I wish to thank you for sending it and at the same time to congratulate you upon the makeup of the book. It is edited with literary ability and reflects credit on you as well as to the contributors of the various articles, and the artistic mechanical makeup are also both very fine. It is a book that is a credit to the organization and its circulation is bound to do much good for the cause.
