Item — Box: GTM Shared Box 2 (Legal), Folder: 23

Scope and Contents

1 ADS receipt dated Baltimore 5/3/1849 received by Michael Courtney Jenkins (b. c.1807) from Rebecca Hillen, guardian of John F. Bouring, for professional services. Michael Courtney Jenkins, who attended Georgetown College from 1818 to 1824 and became a lawyer in Baltimore, edited the "Catholic Mirror" during the Civil War. The U.S. government suppressed that newspaper because of its pro-Confederacy editorials (Jenkins, Edward Felix, O.S.A. "Thomas Jenkins of Maryland: 1670, His Descendants and Allied Families." Baltimore: Maryland Historical Society, 1985).
