Transcript | "Glynneath", Mill Terrace North Adelaide 14 Dec. 1927 My dear James I was glad to get your letter (3.10.27). I mentioned here that the Irish are not offensive as Catholics—to Christians; [they] keep on well their own fair religion, but never dodge—for profit and development— against the Christian Religion of others. There was some trouble, against Catholics, in some other Nations in Early time[s]; being really their looking for their development and their profit, against other developing friends. Over two thousand years ago, the Paganes — who had an idea of about five Goods [? Gods] — never offended the coming Christianity, and the later development of Catholic Sense. I just wrote to J. W. Hamilton—(740 Freller Avenue—St. Paul, Minnesota—America), who just wrote to me at the moment, again. He deal with "The Magna Charta and The English Speaking Union", and keeps on well with the British. Dear Mr. Hamilton:—I just got, with friendship, your letter, published October, 1927, and keep on; and just send one, today, to a prominent friend in Sydney, a letter as to the pure sense and relation of the British and the American. He wrote to me, from Sydney, 25 November, 1927—being R.T.M. K—ally, Circular Quay, Sydney Harbor Trust—and he just mentioned that —"I know that there is no one in Australia who has a knowledge of the subject equal to yourself, and I should be glad if you would let me have information on the subject particularly in regard to the Danube and Rhine and perhaps the detrimental affect on some of the Streams in America due to unreasonable abstraction of water for irrigation purposes." I hope to write to you again, but I am much writing to friends again today. I hope you are all well in Ireland. Your fond Brother P. McM. Glynn |
