Jager kept at it; his serialized 6me lettre (in the weekly Le moniteur religieux, April 1835) drew Newman's 4me reponse, 1 partie (written in July 1835) printed Dec 1835 and Feb 1836 in Le moniteur de la religion, where Jager's 7me lettre, his last, appeared in 1836. Jager collected these in the present volume, Newman's on p. [91]-120, [337]-94. -- [For the fourth reply, part two, never sent by Newman but surviving in a scribal hand, see Allen, p. [117]-44, with other matter] -- Although to Hurrell Froude he could call Jager 'the most ignorant of men and the most inconsequent of reasoners. It is a great bore, yet. .it shows I am not a Papist.'
