Carrier, C.S.C., Father Joseph C.:
St. Laurent College
Montreal, Canada
to (James F.) Edwards:
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
He never doubted Edwards' generous friendship. He must admit that he has done something in establishing and protracting the scientific course at Notre Dame. He is afraid that Father (John A.) Zahm (C.S.C.) is not over just in his appreciation of what he owes to Carrier. The disciple is now famous while the magister is content to remain ignorant. He is glad that Prof. (Timothy E.) Howard is writing the history of Notre Dame. Carrier would be flattered if the name of one who labored at Notre Dame for 14 years for the advancement of science and the formation of a library and museum would be mentioned. He donates the first booklet published at Notre Dame and printed in Niles; another booklet printed in 1845 for N. D. concerning the establishment of the Confraternity of the Immaculate Conception; a sectional map of Notre Dame surveyed and drawn by Carrier in 1869, a view of the church and academy of the Sisters at Bertrand; and his famous lithographed map of Notre Dame. It is not impossible that Carrier may end his voluntary exile and return to Notre Dame.

Hurth, C.S.C., Bishop P(eter) J.:
Dacca, East Bengal
to Father D(aniel) E. Hudson, C.S.C.:
Notre Dame, Ind(iana)
Hurth left Notre Dame under circumstances which caused him to style his departure an "ecclesiastical elopement". He apologized for not saying goodbye to Hudson when he left Notre Dame. The work of converting the natives, always difficult, becomes doubly so there on account of the caste system and the American Baptists. The American Baptists preach the gospel of slander against Catholics. The yearly revenue of the diocese of Dacca hardly exceeds $6,000. The Ave Maria is now read by the wife of the Raja whom Father (Michael) Fallize, (C.S.C.) and Hurth visited lately. Hurth adks Hudson to send a copy of the Ave Maria to Father A. Francais, Chittagong, East Bengal. He encloses a copy of the Salve Regina in their language.

Eaton is ashamed of not sending the monographs. He thanks Seton for his kind note. He wishes Seton were in New York so they could cheer each other when they were blue. Society is absolutely necessary to them both. He received from Col(onel) Robert E. Boyle photographs of John Hamilton and his wife Katherine Arbuckle, who afterward married Hugh Montgomerie and became an ancestress of the Earls of Eglinton. John Hamilton was "Baillie of the Abbey of Holyrood" for many years. He is not going to church much this Lent, but goes to the Cathedral every noon to say his prayers.

Howe, Frances R(ose):
Hot Springs, Ark(ansas)
to Father D(aniel) E. Hudson, C.S.C.:
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Howe wonders if, when Hudson penned the article on our "Brothers in Black", he was aware he was delivering a blow at the Bishops and clergy of the South. The Catholic laity are bitterly opposed to conversion of the colored people and their clergy for the most part uphold them in their opposition. Hudson would be surprised to know how many Catholics there are in the South. There is a coldness towards religion, but it is not the coldness of indifference but the false reverence of Jansenism. The Negroes' want of chastity is the argument used in the South to oppose their conversion to the Catholic Church. Howe has heard that these are the sentiments of Bishop (Edward) Fitzgerald and the majority of his clergy. The late pastor of Hot Springs denounced the Negro race as worthless, and declared that all the money spent on their conversion was more than wasted. The conditions of their endowment oblige the Sisters of Mercy of this Hot Springs foundation to keep a colored school, but they can only give moral instruction. The pastor takes no interest in their labors. No wonder the colored people regard Catholics as their enemies. If the Catholic laity of the South could have their own way the Negro race would be reenslaved tomorrow. If in Hot Springs a mission for the Negroes was regularly opened and they were welcomed, many of them would embrace the Catholic Church. Howe's anxieties on Cecelia's account may seem overstrained. The Vicar General of Indianapolis gave her to Howe during Bishop (Francis Silas) Chatard's absence. Howe will be home early next month.

He has printed a book of which he sends Hudson a copy. (Herbert) Cardinal Vaughan, his cousin, wished him to print it. Weld wants to send four or five hundred copies to dispose of according to Hudson's discretion.

Brandi, S.J., Father S(alvatore) M.:
Rome, (Italy)
to Archbishop (Michael Augustine Corrigan:
New York, New York)
Brandi acknowledges (Corrigan)'s letter of March 1. His request will be attended to at once. Brandi does not believe what the person told (Corrigan). He knows for certain that the person is discredited and that no application of that sort would be considered unless fully endorsed by (Corrigan). Brandi is not surprised that the "clique" was disappointed in the enclyclical. (Corrigan) may have guessed the genesis of it. They failed to get what they wanted by the grace of the Holy Spirit. By this time (Corrigan) must know the final answer given the five or six archbishops on the decree on secret societies. The Holy Father was consoled when he finally received the adhesion by cablegram of (Archbishop John Ireland) and (Cardinal James Gibbons). Bishop (Thomas) Becker has gone to the Holy Land. He had a special audience with the Pope and will see him again on his return. On other points he will speak to Bishop (Charles E.) McDonnell when he comes to Rome. Mr. and Mrs. Bliss have gone to Naples to return in April to Rome. Brandi suggests that an honor be obtained for Bliss such as was obtained for Mr. Creighton of Omaha through Cardinal Mazzella. The execution of this plan depends upon (Corrigan). The request could be enclosed in a letter to Cardinal Mazzella who will do all he can to further the request. Brandi has spoken to no one of this idea.

Smith has been much interested in Seton's letter in Monday's Tribune as he was once before in a contribution in "Curio." He asks Seton to direct him to the publication in which he can find the account of the "forty families in the United States that can prove their origin from the aristocracy of the mother country." Smith's father is W(illia)m Alex(and)er Smith, whom Seton may know by reputation. As a lineal descendant of Sir Robert Wingfield and Lady Elizabeth Cecil through his great great grandmother Rebecca, sister of Bishop (John Henry) Hobart, it is not unnatural that Smith should feel some interest in matters of pedigree.

What is the address of the Catholic Quarterly? They saw Seton's Lincoln letter in the Tribune. Seton keeps the 40 family secret like a sword of Damocles. March 25 he will attend a dinner to celebrate the 21st birthday of a friend, Frederick De Witt Wells. In a month, Rex (Reginald Jevons), Ferdy (Ferdinand Talbot Roscoe Jevons) and Thomas will begin their weekend excursions to Cragdon. They intend to build a camp in the woods. As Uncle Will(iam Seton) and Aunt Sally do not sail till June Uncle Will may Join them occasionally. He and Rex went to a party at Mrs. Gordon Norrie's last week. Now that Congress has moved out, business is reviving. Now they will see what the Republicans can do after all their promises and boasting.

Will Robert tell how Sir Bruce is related to him and what his position is. From his coat of arms Jevons presumes he is in the public service. Jevons is glad to see that while Robert encourages Seton to write he also criticizes him. He needs greater accuracy. Jevons has almost decided to sail April 20 per "Campania" in which case he will miss St. George's dinner. He hopes Robert will go as he proposes to be represented by Rex (Reginald Seton) and Seton and would like them to be under Robert's wing.

(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Conformably to Edwards' request, he wrote his reminiscences of Prof. (Max) Girac. Judge Howard may desire to avail himself of Carrier's souvenirs of the great musician. He may write a short notice of Prof. (Stanislaus) Beleke. He is afraid (Timothy) Howard will have little time to complete the history of Notre Dame. Carrier will do all he can to further the undertaking.

Mahon, P. J.:
Chicago, (Illinois)
to J(ames) F. Edwards:
Notre Dame, Indiana
Edwards' photographs of the California missions are now in course of reproduction. They are gathering in others from all parts of the world. Edwards is aware now that (Maurice F.) Egan is Editor of the work. Egan's name will give a stamp of superiority to the work in Catholic eyes. Mahon looks back gratefully to the cheery help he obtained from Notre Dame through Edwards. They plan to translate the book into Spanish, French and German. This enterprise has inspired the firm to go more largely into the Catholic field. Knowing the feebleness of Catholic publishers, they must feel grateful that such is the case.
