Respectfully yours,
D. P. Murphy, Jr.
New York, July 13, 1908.
Mrs. T. H. Murray,
Humarock Beach, Sea View, Mass.
Dear Madam: I received the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society, Volume VII, 1907, and beg leave to thank you for the same. It is admirably gotten up in Mr. Murray’s usual good style and nicely illustrated, and well bound.
It is like all the previous numbers, a monument to the great ability and devoted industry of your husband. His loss to the Society is indeed very great. His devotion to the work of this Society endeared him to all who knew of his earnest efforts, and his work in its behalf has made for him a most enduring monument.
Very truly yours,
Jno. J. Lenehan.
