Secretary-General American-Irish Historical Society, Boston, Mass.
My Dear Mr. Murray: I have just received Volume VI of the Journal of the American-Irish Historical Society, and have perused its contents with a great deal of interest.
No word of mine can convey the gratitude I personally feel for the disinterested and fruitful work of those, yourself among them, whose labors have succeeded in resurrecting so much information of value, tending to point out the importance of the work of the early Irish emigrants in the formative period of American history and institutions.
I pray the good work may be continued, to the end that our children, as Americans, may learn the truths of history rather than its vagaries and falsehoods. With great respect, believe me,
