A CARD FROM EISHOP SCANLAN. I feel it my duty to protect Catholics and the public generally from fraud and imposition by notifying them from time to time that no person bearing the name and garb of a priest or Bister or miy one else ife authorized or permitted to solicit or collect in this diocese for - any purpose whatever connected with the Catholic church without having from me permission in writing bearing my seal and signature. Should any one be found engaged in doing this unlawful unlaw-ful work of collecting without such a document, he or she, as the case may be, should be regarded by all as a fraud and an impostc-r. L. SCANLAN, Bishop of Salt Lake. Nov. 20. 1693.
