A FEW OF THE LETTERS RECEIVED CONCERNING VOLUME VIII.
The following are a few of the letters received by the Secretary-General, commenting on Vol. VIII. of the Journal, which was distributed last year:
JOHN F. O’CONNELL, PROVIDENCE, R. I.
Some time ago I received a copy of the 8th Volume of the American Irish Historical Society’s records. I want at this time to apologize for not acknowledging receipt of it before. While I have not been asked by any publishing house to fill a 5-ft. shelf of the best sellers, I will cheerfully recommend this book to anybody in search of a liberal education of the Irish chapter in American History. The book and yourself reflect credit upon one another.
M. R. F. MCCARTHY, BINGHAMTON, N. Y.
The purpose of this note is to acknowledge receipt of Volume Eight, Journal of the American Irish Historical Society. It is a very creditable work indeed and most interesting. The merits of the book are many and I desire to thank you for my copy.
J. B. SPILLANE, NEW YORK CITY.
The latest volume, bearing on the proceedings of the American-Irish Historical Society, has just reached me, and I congratulate you most heartily on its general excellence, both from literary and typographical view-points.
These volumes have become a veritable encyclopedia of important data bearing upon the achievements of people of Irish birth in America, and they supplement the work of the Society in a most valuable way, for the facts presented within the covers of these volumes will last long after its members shall have passed away.
Up to the time the American Irish Historical Society was organized nothing had been done in a really practical way to identify those of Irish birth and descent with the history and development of the Colonies and the United States outside of fugitive articles in the daily press. But now we have a permanent record of actual accomplishments, the value of which will grow with the years.
The members are, indeed, much indebted to the late lamented Thomas H. Murray for the time bestowed, as well as the patience and ability which he displayed in the compilation of these volumes, and when I say that the volume just to hand is of equal interest and importance to any of its predecessors little more need be said in complimenting you.
WILLIAM BEER, NEW ORLEANS.
I am duly in receipt of the copy of the American Irish Historical Society Journal, Volume Eight. I thank you for it and for placing us on your mailing list.
The section on late publications interesting to members is one of great value and should be cultivated until it covers not only the names of books interesting to members but of periodical articles.
THOMAS DWYER, NEW YORK CITY.
I beg to gratefully acknowledge the receipt of the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society. I think the American Irish Historical Society deserves great credit for the publishing of this book, and I trust it will periodically issue such publications, as they are most encouraging and instructive to everybody interested in the story of Ireland and its people.
CHARLES MCCARTHY, JR., PORTLAND, ME.
Volume Eight of the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society was received a few days ago, for which I thank you and congratulate you on its general arrangement and appearance.
CLARENCE W. STOWELL, PROVIDENCE.
I was pleasantly surprised to find in my mail this morning a copy of The Journal of the American Irish Historical Society, Volume Eight. Please accept my sincere thanks for the same, and let me congratulate you upon the very interesting volume you have compiled. I will read its contents with great pleasure.
CARNEGIE FREE LIBRARY.
I beg to acknowledge the receipt of—with best thanks—The Journal of the American Irish Historical Society, Volume Eight, which shall be duly placed in the Reference Library of this Institution. It will be considered a great favor if your Council can see their way to donate the seven preceding volumes to this Library, also to place the name of this Institution on your free-list for future issues of your annual volume.
JAMES WILKINSON, _Secretary and Librarian_.
WILLIAM J. KELLY, PORTSMOUTH, N. H.
I beg to acknowledge receipt of Volume Eight of the Journal and thank you for the same. This is the best ever.
JAMES CONNOLLY, CORONADO, CAL.
I thank you for Volume Eight of Journal of American Irish Historical Society, at hand just now.
I take pleasure in tendering yourself and the Society sincere congratulations on the excellence of this work. It shows that you and your co-laborers in the field are fully alive and awake to the great and salutary duties which you have in hand.
WILLIAM J. BARRY, BOSTON.
Permit me to express my appreciation of your work and the work of your assistants in compiling the Eighth Volume of the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society. Upon receipt of same I started to glance it over, but spent all the afternoon and evening reading it and found the Journal deeply interesting.
EDWARD J. MCGUIRE, NEW YORK.
I want to congratulate you heartily upon the excellent work done in the preparation of the American Irish Historical Society’s Journal. It is a handsome volume, excellently arranged. I have looked it over carefully. I think you can readily qualify as a member of the Authors’ Club.
REV. GEORGE F. MAGUIRE, HARWICH, MASS.
I am in receipt of your Journal of the American Irish Historical Society, for which please accept my sincere thanks. The information it contains will add greatly to the popular knowledge of what Irishmen have achieved, to enlarge the domain of their honest efforts in securing for themselves recognition as potent factors in the upbuilding of national thought and success.
I am rejoiced to accept the above mentioned Journal as an evidence of your sterling worth, in placing before the public _names_ and _facts_ which will strengthen the claim we make for our race, of having entered largely as a component of the many national privileges which we enjoy.
JAMES H. DEVLIN, JR., BOSTON.
Many thanks for the Journal that you have just sent me. The Society has good reason to be proud of its Journal and of its Secretary-General who is responsible for it.
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.
JOHN D. CRIMMINS, NEW YORK CITY.
I have this moment received and opened Volume Eight of the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society.
My warmest congratulations to you on this excellent production, which is a credit to the Society. It is by far the best volume yet brought out.
HENRY L. JOYCE, NEW YORK CITY.
I beg to acknowledge receipt of the Society’s annual book for the year 1909. I want to congratulate you upon the splendid work you have turned out. It is well done, very interesting, and fully appreciated.
JOSEPH F. O’CONNELL, M. C., BOSTON.
I have received today Volume Eight of the Journal of the American Irish Historical Society, and I wish to extend to you my compliments on the splendid way in which it is gotten up.
JAMES F. BRENNAN, PETERBOROUGH, N. H.
