Letter from M.J. Curran to Hagan
Holograph letter from M.(J. Curran), 338 East 29 Street 1927 New York (United States of America), to Hagan. Regretting that the response in New York has not been good; but still reckoning with an end result of $25,000-30,000. Cultivating the (Ancient Order of Hibernians) is still the best strategy, as following Monsignor John Ryan (Chicago)'s first advice. A certain Fr. McQuaide has been successful in collecting for the Clogher convent; comments on the typically negative response from the millionaires; he will himself rely on the smaller types of subscriptions. Urging him to consider attending the Order's convention in Buffalo 19-22 July.
