With sincere pleasure I have received the two copies of your aew edition of Deharbe's Catechism. It was this revision of the Catechism of Deharbe for the Germans in America that Iwished for so long. Deharbe's Catechisms, both the larger and the smaller, have for a long time been in use in many schools of my diocese, especially iu Milwaukee and in the numerous convent (female) schools under the care of the Sisters of JSTotre Damp^ it is, therefore, scarcely necessary for me to declare that the Catholic Catechism of Father Jos. Deharbe, S.J., has my fullest approval, and that I specially recommend the same in its newly revised form to all my German clergy and teachers. At the same time I beg you, as publishers of this new edition of Deharbe's Catechism, to give it a speeay circulation. JOHN M. HENlSn, -;<. Bishop. Detroit, March 7, 1872.
