1889 Mar.( ) (
Mohun, Clare Hanson: (Washington, District of Columbia)
 to Father (Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Does Hudson think Father (Edward) Sorin would endorse this paper because Dorsey (Mohun) is the grandson of Mrs. (Anna Hanson) Dorsey. Mohun would be grateful to Sorin if he endorsed. President (Rutherford) Hayes is interested and will present the paper when it is ready to his excellency. Mohun thinks her mother's long service to the Irish and Catholics ought to make her son welcome in Belfast. Hudson is asked not to speak of this to Mrs. Dorsey or Nellie for Mohun wishes to surprise them. Whether Sorin does or does not sign the paper, send it to Bishop (John Ambrose) Watterson.

 to Father (James H. McGean: New York, New York)

Shea is still confined to bed and chair, and now he finds that the Leslie establishment is to move next month. Shea has some materials at the office which he would appreciate having stored in McGean's garret or cellar until the (U.S. Catholic Historical) Society has an abiding habitation. Unless McGean proposes to dispense with all reports, the Committee on Publications is to make one. Shea has recently gotten hold of Bishop (John) England's diary for his first two years at Charleston. Shea is amazed at the extent of his work, and has a higher opinion of Bishop England than he ever entertained. Is it possible that they can not find an eloquent Bishop, priest, or Layman to produce a grand discourse on him? If not, more shame to them all.

 to J(ames) F. Edwards: (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Proof Sheet - Catholic Page, The Continental Press A few items: Bishop John S. Keane, rector of the Catholic University at Washington, has been at Notre Dame for some time formulating the rules on the line of those in force at Notre Dame University. The only American priest who exceeded Father John Carroll, Chaplain of the Mercy Hospital, Chicago, in years was Father Joseph (Louis) Neyron who died at Notre Dame Some months ago in his 96th year. Neyron had been a soldier under Napoleon. Professor Maurice F. Egan says he is not sorry to be rid of the vexatious cares of Catholic journalism. Notre Dame is the first Catholic College, possibly the first in any denomination, the experiment in the science of journalism.

(Note: The enclosed photos are of the banners of the first American Pilgrimage to Palestine.)

Dunlop, W(illia)m B.: Edinburgh, (Scotland)
 to Monsignor (Robert) Seton:

Dunlop thanks Seton for his letter, the book of his essays, and the two photos. He and his mother have been studying the essays with great pleasure and interest on account of their acquaintance with the Eternal City and with the accomplished author. The photo of Seton in prelates' robes arrived in a damaged condition. He thinks the enclosure (no enclosure) will interest Seton as a specimen of Calvinistic persecution. Dunlop thinks their old friend Dr. Struthers must have laughed over these musty records of the persecuting spirit of, among others, a predecessor at Prestonpans. Is there any chance of Seton being over there again next summer? Seton speaks of his brother having left America for a sojourn in Europe. Dunlop cannot claim any Seton blood but as a Hamilton his interest in any Seton is great. He had his kinsman, Sir William Hamilton, staying with him after Seton left; he has succeeded to a large sum of money. Dunlop wants him to redeem part of the old Preston estates which are in the market. They have come into town for the winter but the house feels quite desolate since the marriage of his eldest sister to an artillery officer stationed in Wales.

Nester, John F.: O'Brien, (Michigan)
 to J(ames) F. Edwards: Notre Dame, Indiana

It was negligence that stopped their correspondence so long. He understands from Frank that Edwards' trip abroad has been postponed till May 1. He is sorry that he cannot see Edwards before that time. Their operation has done splendid work, 30 million feet of logs in the river already and expect to put in 7 million more. Frank writes that the football eleven expect to play Ann Arbor another game.

Smith, Milton E.: Washington, D(istrict of) C(olumbia)
 to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.: (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Smith acknowledges receipt of four dollars, and forwards the thanks of Mrs. Smith. His only excuse for not writing are the demands of his job writing editorials and reading manuscripts. The Ave Maria erred in reporting the conversion of General Joseph Wheeler, a report started last June in the American Catholic News. Smith being a personal friend of Wheeler corrected the report twice. It is not true in the least particular. Enclosed is a clipping about the conversion of Generals Hunt and Wheeler.

Dorsey, Anna Hanson: Washington, (District of Columbia)
 to Father D(aniel) E. Hudson, C.S.C.: (Notre Dame, Indiana)

When her stories were being collected for the uniform edition, she objected to Nellie's (Ella Lorraine Dorsey) insistence that "The Heiress of Carrigmona" be included because some chapters were missing. They learned from (Patrick) Donahoe for whose paper she wrote the story around 1850, that all files of the Pilot were saved from the Boston fire of 1872, that ruined Donahoe. (John) Boyle O'Reilly, the present editor of the Pilot gave her permission to copy the parts of the story she lacked, which was done. Considering this, Dorsey does not think it unreasonable that she should claim exclusive rights to this book. She repurchased "Zoe's Daughter" from Donahoe for $100; Hudson agreed on behalf of the Ave Maria office to pay $50 for it and give her exclusive right to this book. (John) Murphy has sent Dorsey four half yearly statements together with $532, half of which she sends Hudson. She grieved over Kathleen O'Meara's death, who she first confused with Julia Kavanagh, a charming writer but inferior to O'Meara in nobleness and strength in her writing. (Patrick V.) Hickey's death was a loss to Catholic literature. She thinks Hickey made the Catholic Review the model Catholic newspaper of the country. She inquires if it was Hickey who had an adventure at a Dominican monastery in Ohio with an evil spirit. Dorsey recommends a book entitled "Face to Face With the Mexicans" by Mrs. Gooche, which she has been reading. It contains a fine portrait of the Emperor Iturbide. Dorsey's cousin Alice Greene married one of his sons, the portraits of her and son Augustin are given.

She did not expect Hudson to forward the reproduced Norman story and her allusion to the D. Puze was meant to justify the claim of authorship. Brother Azarias, (Patrick Francis Mullany) F.S.C. called on his way to New York. She was shocked by the death of (Patrick V. ) Hickey. Then Broeck submits an article on the patronage of St. Joseph.

Mannix, Mary E.: San Diego, California
 to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, (C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Why not ask Christian Reid to write a short story? "The Angel of Red Front" was a gem. Sara Trainer Smith writes well and Mannix would be satisfied if she could write like her. Mannix is intent on the Irish question; she was convinced long ago that (Richard) Pigott was the guilty man, because of what Mr. Healy told her about Pigott's infamy. Healy did not then believe in the disinterestedness of Prime Minister Gladstone, but credited him with personal motives. The English government is capable of anything. No doubt, Hudson has heard of the gold fever in San Diego. The excitement is favorable for the mines in which her husband is interested. The president of the company, Colonel Baraza is in Mexico attempting to interest some members of the Mexican government in investing in the company. Brother John Chrysostom (Mark Will) visited them.

 to Father (Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

In Borden's "Miniature Lives of the Saints" there is the legend relating how St. Brigid came to be called "the Mary of Erin". The expression "Mary of Erin" would lead people to think the nun of Kildare fills for her country the office of patronage, mediatorship and mothership which Mary occupies for the rest of nations. This is false.

Shea has just done the agreement between Archbishop (John) Carroll and F. Molyneux. Shea is beginning to get around with the help of crutches. New York is poorly off as regards material for its early history. Why was there no prof. Edwards to gather up and preserve fifty years ago?

Welch, S.J., Father Edw(ard) H.: Georgetown, D.C.
 to (Henry F.) Brownson: (Detroit, Michigan)

Father Welch asks for information on Brownson's classmate at Holy Cross College, James Clarence Bergen. After his graduation in 1852 he want to the Harvard Law school. Assuming that he is a graduate of Georgetown—at that time the graduates of Worcester received their degrees from Georgetown—the Librarian of the (Harvard) Law School writes to Father Welch to learn something about Bergen for their catalogue. As the Librarian of the Law School has always been very kind, Father Welch would like to give him all the information he can. If Bergen is living, he would like to know where he lives and what he is doing; if he is dead, when, where and how he died. He thinks Brownson will probably remember him too; they met at Georgetown several times during the first year of the War and before at Frederick and at Brownson's father's house in Chelsea. He hopes Brownson's health is good.

Brownson, H(enry) F.: Detroit, Mich(igan)
 to W(illiam) J. Onahan: Chicago, Illinois

He sends for Onahan's consideration a crude plan he thought of in connection with a congress. He would have a committee draw up an address to the Catholics of the U.S., get the approval of the Archbishops and prominent laymen throughout the country and arrange for a meeting and temporary organization of the congress. He prefers Washington, D.C. He can write to W(illia)m Richards of Washington to get a good name from there for the committee. (Peter L.) Foy from St. Louis or perhaps (Henry J.) Spaunhorst and one of the O'Brien brothers from New York might complete the committee of arrangements. The address should state who are to come, or would Onahan have delegates? The object should be stated: the promotion of harmony of thought and action among Catholics of the U.S. Brownson thinks they should write to some of the archbishops and bishops now. He mentioned it already to Archbishop(William H.) Gross. If Onahan will write to Archbishops (Patrick W.) Riordan and (John) Ireland and Bishop (John L.) Spalding Brownson will write to his particular friends, Bishops (James A.) Healy and (Camillus P.) Maes, and a list of others. As soon as they are sure of the approval of Cardinal (James) Gibbons, Archbishop Ireland and a few more, they should go ahead unless unexpected opposition comes up. He supposes they must rely on voluntary contributions for expenses.

Brownson's program is all right. He thinks that they can get (Henry J.) Spaunhorst of St. Louis interested. He is a capital organizer; Onahan knows him well and perhaps will see him in St. Louis next week. He knows (Peter L.) Foy also. Would not (Edmond) Mallet of Washington be a good man for the work?

Perhaps Hudson might like to use "A Child of Grace" by Mrs. Theodora I.L. Teeling published in Russell's The Month. Hudson must praise "Lessons From Our Lady's Life" by a clever young Irish widow, Mrs. Blundell.

Stoddard is anxious to know what Hudson will say about the proposition Bishop Keane made him with regards to teaching English Literature at the Catholic University. Poor Philip Brownson, Stoddard does not believe that he ever suffered a pang of love or remorse in his life, or could shed a tear though it might extinguish the fires of hell. While at Covington, Stoddard put together an album of pictures of people he knew at Notre Dame. Stoddard received word from John Conlon's brother that he had died in January. Bishop Keane took him to visit the Haywoods in Rome. Haywood lives in a palace built by Henry VIII for his ambassador and has a library of over twelve thousand priceless volumes. He gave Stoddard two of his volumes, while W.W. Story gave him one of his together with a letter to Ouida in Florence. Accepting Ouida's invitation, Stoddard on two occasions visited her. How they dissected their several literary brothers and sisters! She is fat, fair and forty with the voice and vanity of a peacock.

She was born in Richmond, Virginia, about 70 years ago.

Gibbons, James Cardinal, Archbishop of Baltimore: Baltimore, (Maryland)
 to H(enry) F. Brownson: (Detroit, Michigan)

Cardinal Gibbons has received Brownson's letter of the 25th, in which he recommends the holding, in the near future, of a Catholic Congress in the United States. Such a convention if properly managed would not fail to foster a stronger spirit of brotherhood among the Catholic communities and give them a greater consciousness of their strength. But to insure its success all the preliminaries should be carefully considered and the subjects to be discussed maturely outlined. He does not think there is sufficient time between now and November to elicit the cooperation of the prelates and to formulate the program of the Congress. Besides, the Centennial celebration in Baltimore to be followed by the opening of the Catholic University will engross the attention of the visiting bishops and would divert their attention from the Congress. When the Bishops assemble in Washington at the University dedication ceremonies, that occasion might be opportune to elicit their views and invite their cooperation.

Gross, W(illia)m H., Archbishop of Oregon City: Portland, Oregon
 to H(enry) F. Brownson: (Detroit, Michigan)

Brownson's letter of the 21st is at hand, and the Archbishop entirely endorses the proposed Catholic Congress. It has long seemed to him that the American laity have been little called on to interest themselves in promoting Catholic affairs, all being left to be done by the clergy, the laity sitting by as an uninterested spectator. This state of affairs may have been a result or reaction from the struggle on the question of trustees. At any rate, the condition is unfortunate, for the aid which could and should be given by the laity is missed. This do nothing condition in the laity causes them to lose all interest and zeal in Catholic matters. They should participate in such things, but under the leadership and guidance of the Hierarchy whom the Holy Ghost has appointed to rule over the Church of God. The Archbishop hopes and prays that the proposed Congress will be a success and that a great good will be done for the Holy Church in this country.

Dutton, (Ira B.) Joseph: Kalawao, Molokai
 to Father D(aniel) E. Hudson, C.S.C.: Notre Dame, Ind(iana)

Father (Joseph) Damien (De Veuster) thanks Hudson for his kindness in the matter of the bells. His lungs are congested and his face shows rapid progress of the disease. Some photographs of De Veuster were taken for medical purpose, one of which will be sent to Hudson. Dutton sends a photograph of the sisters and their groups of girls together with the purificator used by De Veuster the last time he said Mass. The photograph was made by Mr. Bingham of Boston for Doctor (Prince Albert) Morrow of New York, who has been making investigations of leprosy. The material he gets will be utilized at the medical congress, which will be held in Paris next August and to develop a cure. Dutton is unable to supply Morrow's address, because Dr.Emerson, President of the Board of Health has Morrow's letter.

(Maes), Bishop Camillus Paul: Covington, K(entuck)y
 to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.: (Notre Dame, Indiana)

News about (Charles Warren) Stoddard is comforting. Something to do is his panacea. Hudson may tell Stoddard that Maes is delighted to know that dire conviction of unescapeable duty has brought him to do so. Does Hudson know how impossible a Bishop's priests make it to be one of them and have a little sensible recreation sometimes? He would give and do anything to be rid of authority, but that would be seeking his own comfort and not God's will.

S(tanfield), F(lora) L(ouise): (South Bend, Indiana)
 to (Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Dollard was so devoted Stanfield thought a sketch of him would not be inappropriate for the Ave.

Williamson, Fannie: Catlettsburg, K(entuck)y
 to Father Daniel E. Hudson, (C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Williamson will always have a kind feeling for the students of Notre Dame, for that is where her brother Wallie (Williamson) spent the last few years of his short life. She thanks Hudson, Professor (John) Ewing and her brother's classmates for their kindness and sympathy.

Shea, John Gilmary: Elizabeth, N(ew) J(ersey)
 to Prof(essor) J(ames) F. Edwards: (Notre Dame, Indiana)

He is delayed with the historical materials from Edwards. Many of these letters have been in several hands and how little they made of them! (Henry) de Courcy had some of them; Bishop (James Roosevelt) Bayley had them for a year; Archbishop (John Joseph) Hughes had them and would not let Shea see them. Edwards has more material for a history of the Church in this country during the present century than was ever dreamt of. What a picture it is! The real piety in the letters of Bishop (John) England has been very consoling to Shea. In men like Bishops (Benedict Joseph) Flaget and (Simon Gabriel) Brute one looks for it, but in men of action, one scarcely expects tender piety. What would Shea not give to find letters like these of Bishop Hughes. Shea is gaining slowly. The surgeon lets him try to visit New York one day next week. He has had time to think of his sins in the bitterness of his soul. They all hope to see Edwards on history to Europe.

S(tanfield), F(lora) L(ouise): South Bend, Ind(iana)
 to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.: (Notre Dame, Indiana)

The little book was a delight. Stanfield was glad to see her little Dennis again and Hudson knows she has a claim on the "Rose of Tolennato".

S(toddard), C(harles) W(arren): Munich, (Bavaria)
 to Father (Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Stoddard sends a picture of Padre Augustino from Rome. He requests a dozen copies of "Lepers of Molokai" and the monthly number of the Ave Maria, which contains the sketch of student life in Rome. Stoddard is looking for Bishop (John) Keane to arrive in Munich shortly. He submits an article entitled "Letter From Over the Sea". A copy of Danny Vail's Dairy should be sent to Father (Denis) O'Connell, Rector of the North American College in Rome.

(Edes, Ella B.): Rome, (Italy)
 to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, (C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Enclosed is the receipt of Mrs. (Eva) Mariotti for $10.00. Today Mariotti informed Edes that she mailed to Hudson an article on St. Benedict. Edes asked M(onsi)g(no)r (Denis) O'Connell if he would like the Ave Maria for the College. He said he would be greatly pleased with it. Regarding Father (Thomas E.) Walsh's visit, the offending porter was the Cerberus of Edes home. M(onsi)g(no)r (Domonic) Jacobini promises to sit for his photo ere long. Edes sent Hudson a copy of the Italian pastoral of Archbishop (Michael A.) Corrigan on the Italians in the United States. It offset the harmful pamphlet of M(onsi)g(no)r (Januarius) De Concilio. The article on the pilgrims in the Catholic Herald was written by one of the party and contains more truth than poetry. All the "spread eagleism" in the American papers is all stuff. There was little notice taken of them there. It was with great difficulty that the Franciscans and O'Connell could secure the party an audience with the pope. Edes sends Hudson the authorized course(?) of Fra Agostino da Montefeltro. It is always the same in every city where he preaches. The government, under excuse of public safety, will probably prohibit the preaching. The Church of S(an) Carlo has the appearance of a fort beseiged. Prior (Patrick) Glynn, O.S.A., refused the Queen of Italy passage through his convent to reach a tribune offered by the Card(inal) Vicar to hear the sermon. Edes fears it will make more trouble for the pope. But one cannot reason with those Paddies. How could Hudson attribute to Edes the letter in the Tablet. The paper is becoming the ridicule of Rome. He never gets anything straight and is a conceited little ass. What fun the attacks by (John) Boyle O'Reilly of the pilot. "Paddy" all the world over. Never stop to see if you be right, but fire away. Edes does not know if she will go on with the Freeman.
