 Joyce Bros & Co.IncorporatedClothingFor Men, Women and ChildrenTelephone Beach {2010 2011782 -786 Washington StreetBoston, Mass. 2/5/21 Mr. John J. Hearn,Westfield, Mass. Dear Mr. Hearn: Reverend Mr. Regan (Kervin Dorbeen) who spoke at themeeting of the George Frisbie Hoar Branch of the A.A.R.I.R. Sunday January30th, has informed me that you were anxious to obtain a copy of the speechI made at that meeting with a view to publishing it in aid of the cause.I take pleasure therefore in enclosing a copy for your perusal. Since writing this, I have thought of a few points thatcould be introduced which would make the article very much stronger:first a fuller treatment of the principle of de facto recognition,second, an illustration of an application of these principles, usingMexico as an example, third, cursory reference to a number of historicalprecedents, such as Henry Clay's stand on the question of recognizingthe South American republics in 1820, fourth, a paragraph giving acondensed view of Irish history with the purpose of proving theabsolutely unquenchable spirit of independence, which is the best argumentfor the continued existence of the present republic. If you think this article will be of any use, I shall beonly too glad to make these additions, which I am certain will greatly strengthen it and I shall be only too pleased to donate it gratis to thecause. It happens however, that I have already sent a copy to thepublication AMERICA, but if you wish this article for use of the Association as propaganda, I shall at once request the Editor ofAMERICA to return my copy, unless they wish to publish it knowing thatyou are going to use it. Trusting you will always consider me as at the service ofthe A.A.R.I.R and with kindest personal wishes, I beg to remain. Yours truly, Edward W.
