Item 16 - Letter from “Fathers McClenie(?) and Burke” to Richard Monckton Milnes

2 ff.

Not a genuine letter: from an anti-Catholic quarter. Thanks for support in Parliament; 'you are jist the person who would shute us because you don’t care what you say - it is all alike to you -true or false -whichever sarves you best -and this is the doctrine we tache our flocks'; Lord John Russell is not to be relied on; he merely inflames the Protestants; Milnes can be granted “a safe Pasport to Heaven” whatever his actions.
