Title: The Rev. Joseph M. Finotti, S.J., papers, 1846-1878.

The Rev. Joseph M. Finotti, S.J., papers consist of Fr. Finotti's diaries from 1846 to 1876; scrapbooks assembled by him in 1877 and 1878; some letters written by Fr. Finotti, as well as correspondence received by him; manuscripts of both writings by Finotti and his translations into English of works by others; assorted printed matter; and miscellaneous materials relating to his work as a priest and to his family. While some of the correspondence is of a personal nature, much of it is on bibliographic and religious, particularly Catholic, topics. The printed material includes five numbers of 'The rock', a newspaper published for the Catholics of Colorado; the first two issues of 'The weekly register', a Catholic periodical published in Brooklyn, N.Y.; an 1868 booklet in German on the Rev. Johannes N. Merz, an early mission priest in Buffalo, N.Y.; and a large collection of instructions, letters, and circulars sent to diocesan clergy by the Bishop of Boston and signed by the chancellor of the diocese, James Augustine Healy, brother of Patrick F. Healy and later Bishop of Portland, Me.
