Lambing received the copies of "Masses for the Dead" for which he thanks Hudson, but he is disappointed that they were not published on the same size paper as the Scholastic Annual.

Lambing claims he also corrected the mistake concerning diriment impediments he made in the manuscript. Lambing requests that Hudson send him the receipt from the Library of Congress for the two copies of the book sent to him.

to (James Alphonsus McMaster):

Sister St. John, writing from the Convent of the H(oly) C(hild) J(esus), acknowledges McMaster's letter. She is glad to hear of his intended trip to Niagara and the Northeast. She wrote Alphonsus (McMaster) the previous week and he answered immediately requesting her prayers. She gathers from the tone of his letter that he has either been in trouble or else he has qualms of conscience after the Forty Hours. He must have his ups and downs too, and so McMaster shouldn't trouble himself too much over him. There are 39 children in the school. Mabel Clarke, from Mobile, (Alabama) has come through Major (Henry C.) Semple, and also a child from Boston has arrived. She is going to write to Gertrude (McMaster) for her birthday. She will pray for her father daily during March.

Lancaster, D.E.:
New York New York
to Hon(orable) Mr. Fenton:
The Bethesda Spring (water) business has been put into a stock company composed of men of responsibility and standing. Senator Sawyer, Ex(ecutive) Sec(retary) Windom, Speaker Keiffen, and Congressman Guenther are included in the number. A good superintendent has been placed in charge and new agencies have been established. The capital stock of $200,000. now pays 6 per cent on par value. Most of the stock has already been taken but Lancaster has a few shares to sell to his friends at $60., the par value being $100. By the coming year it is expected to pay 8 per cent on par and possible 10 per cent. This is a good and safe investment and from Trenton's knowledge of the merits of the water he knows the sales will be large. The stock maybe sold any time at par. Lancaster is willing to enter Fenton's name for any amount of stock he may care to take and to answer any questions about the company. He will appreciate an early reply if Fenton desires to invest.

McKendrick, having a brother and other relations and friends here, may come from Chicago and ask to be admitted to this diocese. In order that (Perché) may not be deceived, Neithart states the following: McKendrick was born in 1850 and ordained in 1880. His conduct towards his superiors and his correspondence with the other sex were such that he had to be dismissed. Should he appeal to (Perché) and occasion trouble they would furnish (Perché) with details.

(New Orleans, Louisiana)
Sister Marie has been at Lockport for a week and thinks of returning at the end of the week. Their house (Congregation of the Immaculate Conception) has fine gardens and trees. Their boarding school, while not numerous, has the children of the best families here. Father (Pierre Marie F.) Letilly, in spite of his short manner, is devoted to the Sisters. They will make the novena for Perché's intention. Sister sees by Perché's letter that Widow(?) Bermudez has decided to join them. Sister hopes that she will remove the fears that Sister has in receiving persons of her age. Sister wishes to have written authorization from Perché it is good to provide for what could happen. Their community will be conducted under the rule that the Mother will be responsible and while taking the advice of her superior general would have liberty of action. As for the temporal the Sisters would administer their affairs themselves under established rules, in complete liberty. After Father Venissat who did the most for them, Father (Anthony) Durier knows their circumstances since the beginning of their foundation. Perché is to put in writing that Durier would be recognized as Perché's successor in all the rights over their community.

He intends to leave for Italy on Monday. The Cardinal cannot officially be involved in affairs which legally lie with (Perché). The corporation is (Perché) he alone can act. Mr. Theard will get funds or credit at Bovillier's for the sum he asks for. All has been done by the bankers and Boursetty paid only on (Perché)'s orders. Bishop (Francis Xavier) Leray needs a sharp(?) mind and for lack of any other, chose Boursetty; Boursetty declines the honor. The visit of those men will have no result if the interests are not paid. (Perché) needs a representative; he has one he does not want(?).

Raymond, Father G(ilbert):
Opelousas, (Louisiana)
to Bishop F(rancis) X(avier) Leray:
New Orleans, Louisiana)
Their servant, Mélite's sister, arrived and said that Archbishop (Napoleon Joseph) Perché was very ill. Father Eby confirmed this. The priests think that Perché should retire and take care of himself. Three neighboring priests, Fathers Jouan, Bardi, and Eby, are of the opinion that in Rome Fathers (Francis) Mittellbronn and (J.B.) Bogaerts will be told that the Administrator of the temporal has been charged to see about the debts and that they are not to do so. If Raymond had received their circular before the letter he wrote to Leray, Raymond would have added something to his letter. It would have been so easy for the Archbishop to remain calm without creating new embarrassment. Raymond is much interested in the Sisters of the Holy Family; they are good persons, capable of rendering great service. When there were 18, their Community falling to pieces, Raymond was put in charge and he has directed them for more than 17 years. At the moment they find themselves in an awkward position. By the intrigues of Sister Madeleine, (S.S.F.), who is influential with Perché, they have bought a new house, too large and too expensive; in 2 or 3 years they would lose it. Being in charge of the temporal, Leray can oppose this purchase. Perché let them take the house at Baton Rouge where they do not have subjects to send. They should take the good ones to Opelousas and send all the bad to Baton Rouge. In naming Le Cozic their superior, Perché treats them as if they were slaves. He has ordered the Opelousas house closed through spite and has tried to turn the Sisters against Raymond. The Sisters have withdrawn the two Sisters from the Archbishop's house, saying that they no longer wished to have Sisters in that condition. Meanwhile they have two at Baton Rouge to cook for Father Delacroix. It seems there must be a change. They should give up their big house and get rid of their debt. The orphan asylum being very large, the Mother could live there with the novices; the school could be held at the house on Hospital street, which is used for nothing at the moment. Sister Madeleine should be put in her place, the profession of the novices advanced a little, and the house at Opelousas put on a good footing. It has more right because it has supplied several Sisters to the Community. In going over Raymond's notes, the Sisters would owe something to the diocese; they could give two Sisters to the archbishopric in compensation for what they owe. Their temporal being under Leray, their whole administration would be subject to Leray. Upon the declaration that they could not keep Opelousas, Raymond asked the Sisters (Marianites of) Holy Cross, to take charge. They have not replied. Raymond will soon be at New Iberia; he will see Leray in (New Orleans).

After Archbishop Perché's letter, after Leray's visits to the convent, and after the meeting of the seven wise men, their hangman, his deputy, his uncle and his two brothers-in-law. Harnais thought all was right again. But it seemed he was mistaken as shown by the enclosed copy of a letter to Archbishop N(apoleon) J(oseph) Perché. When Perché's letter was received, announcing the withdrawal of Sister (Mary of St.) Francis, (M.H.C.) gave notice to the Sisters that they could come to Confession or if they preferred to go to a Jesuit, to wait until the next day. It was the 24th vigil of the opening of the mission. The Sisters confessed to Father (David) McKiniry, (S.J.). On Monday the pastor of Baton Rouge came, heard the Confessions again, and went to say Mass there. finds a little too much in a priest who does not permit the extraordinary confessor of the Sisters in his parish to hear them at their house and has never permitted anyone to say Mass there. Last week he went directly to Donaldsonville. Bishop Leray and went to the Sisters and all seemed settled. But today the pastor of Baton Rouge came again to hear their Confessions. Having told him that things had been arranged by Leray, he declined Leray's authority and said he had orders from Perché to come. If Perché has appointed the pastor of Baton Rouge as ordinary and extraordinary confessor the Sisters of Plaquemine, wishes that Perché would let him know. If this is so, believes that the pastor of Baton Rouge will quickly give up his post and come to say Sunday Mass for the Sisters as will have to give their places to the children of the parochial school which he will be forced to establish. has enough to do to combat the renegades, the impious, the drunks of his parish and does not look forward to see the Sisters joined with them in opposing to priest." The convent chosen for the meeting place of last Friday shows Leray that they are more friendly with these men than with the priest. Leray is to let Harnais know his decision and that of the Archbishop.

Cancienne, 55, residing in St. Philomena's Parish, and Forest, 40, of the same parish, married civilly, wish to marry in the Church. There is an impediment of affinity, Cancienne being the father-in-law of Foret by a first marriage with Cléonce Barillaux, widow of Everiste Foret of whom Antoinette is the daughter of this first marriage. Therefore the suppliants ask Perché to give them, or obtain from the Holy See, a dispensation for the following reasons: 1. Antoinette was more than 25 when the civil marriage was contracted; 2. The desire to live in peace with their consciences. The suppliants ask Perché to consent to an offering of $50.

Ryder, Eliot:
Boston, (Massachusetts)
to Father (Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.:
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Ryder has not written a single poem since the first of the year, but when he does he will send it to Hudson. He would like to know what Father (Matthew) Russell, S.J., says about his book. Ryder's story "Samuel H. Derby" is dead and he can't find time or inspiration to resurrect him. James Martineau, Epes & Sargent credit the hymn, "Lord, Dismiss Us" to Walker Shirley and as a result quite a discussion has arisen in the Boston Transcript. Ryder's article on Hawker, in which he credited Hawker with composing the hymn may be published in the Transcript. Ryder's source of information is S. Baring Gould. He requests Hudson send him a couple of copies of Rouquette.

Seymour, Mary Alice:
New York, (New York)
to Father (Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.):
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Seymour is downhearted over the failure to be hired as a music teacher at a Catholic school which Hudson recommended. She has been unemployed for three months and people will not employ her when they learn she is a Catholic. Besides this she is ill. Seymour is entertaining thoughts of leaving the Church. (Maurice Francis) Egan has tried to help her but has experienced little success. The Catholic World has had two of her articles since last summer but has not published them, and Seymour doubts if (T.F.) Galwey, the assistant editor will ever permit them to appear. The gentleman, who jilted Seymour, is Galwey, and people who knew of his devotion to her, were surprised when it was announced that he was going to marry Mrs. William Mitchell of Cincinnati.

Lechner, O.S.B., Mother Alexia:
Covington, K(entuck)y
to Archbishop (Napoleon Joseph Perché):
New Orleans, (Louisiana)
They are unable to comply with (Perché)'s request to again receive S(iste)r Cunigunda (Gouley, O.S.B.), of whose return to Covington, they have no idea. If (Perché) knew one tenth of the trouble Cunigunda has given in the ten years they have borne with her, he would not impose her on them any further. The Chapter refuses to receive her because of non-compliance with the rule and her other disobedience. She is a great hindrance to her sister Sister Radegundis (Gouley, O.S.B.). They kept Cunigunda for so many years hoping she would become better; she always wished to remain. She had the custom of going to the Bishop to complain; the Bishop also advised her to go, but it was not for a visit. Yesterday she came to Alexia to ask if she would be received. Otherwise she would go to her father's house if Alexia would let her go in her habit. On the second day, Cunigunda refused to go to the orphan house; they cannot keep the two sisters here together. They would have been silent as heretofore had it not appeared improper to dismiss her again without giving (Perché) some reasons. (Perché) is to see that Cunigunda lays off the habit as she means to live at home.

to Bishop (Francis Xavier Leray:

Father Enaut wrote that Leray had donated $200 either for a vestry and a room near the church of Milliken's Bend or to buy a suitable house. At Mrs. Morancy's demise the family will likely be dispersed and the priest left without shelter. The levees up or down the river may break at any minute and there may be two or three feet of water in the streets of Monroe. (H.) Filhiol received news from Emmetsburg that his fifteen year old son Grammont (Filhiol) died yesterday. Father (Jeremiah) Bres and Mahé do the best they can during Enaut's absence.

to Archbishop (Napoleon Joseph Perché:

Champin talked several times with (Perché) during his stay in New Orleans before going to Texas. Champin also saw him later and (Perché) gave him a letter in which Father Chambodut recommended him to (Perché)'s kindness when Champin went to France to recover his health. Now recovered and not being able to bear the daily attacks in France against the clergy, Champin would like to work again in a country less unhealthy than Texas. He is now a teacher at St. Bernard College run by the Oblates of St. F(rancis) de Sales. He has with him his youngest brother, a seminarian, 25 years of age, who would also like to leave for the missions. They hope that (Perché) will accept them but they could not pay for the trip.

Kittell apologizes for being negligent in getting Hudson the relics while he was in Rome. He received Hudson's draft and used the entire amount in purchasing the reliquaries which Hudson should soon receive. Because of abuses, the authorities at Lipsanotheca have issued more stringent regulations in granting relics and thus have made it difficult for Kittell to get the desired relics. Kittell intended to put them in Bishop (John) Tuigg's trunk when he left Rome on February 10th, but in the confusion of packing, he forgot them. Father (Henry C.) Macdowall, rector of St. Agnes Church, New York will carry them to the United States when he departs in a few days.

Toward the beginning of the year (Dicharry) offered some financial help. If Poullain did not accept it, it was because Bishop Leray had just sent a sum sufficient to pay the largest of the debts, then Poullain asked for a change. When this did not come, Poullain was forced to assume the expenses of the house and the most urgent repairs. Among them were the replacement of the roof of the church and of the presbytery, the building of a new kitchen, the changing of the interior wainscoting of the presbytery and the fence. Almost $150 is needed. It is a hard year; can the archbishopric help? Poullain asks to be changed as soon as possible. Every year they fall behin. (Dicharry) is to submit Poullain's desire to the Bishop.

Cuitré counts on the double assurance given in (Leray)'s letter of February 28 that she would be reimbursed for her claim of 27,000 francs. She has refused to join in the process in which (E.) D'Aquin has engaged the creditors to make. But because of her ill health and advanced age it is impossible to leave her money in a loan which does not offer all the guarantees possible for a charitable establishment. This sum is assigned to an establishment of Sisters who have a school and who visit the sick in a country parish. Without this payment this establishment of 26 years would have to dissolve. She has written in this vein to Rome, where she knows Secretary, of Propaganda, Masotti. She sent a copy of (Leray)'s letter there adding that (Jules) de Boursetty was also a close friend of the Cardinal Prefect. (She signs) To the care of Denpit(?) Rochereau.

If (Helen) McMaster has a true vocation to the sisterhood, they will be pleased to admit her into the community, since one who has been so piously brought up and who has been surrounded by such good influences is sure too prove a worthy member. Since the order does not teach, and since their handiwork does not procure sufficient revenue, Archbishop (James Gibbons) requires each postulant to bring a pension of $2000. During the Novitiate, the board is paid at the rate of $150. a year. In regards to the inheritance of McMaster's daughter, the necessary dispensation will be given to meet the requirements of civil law. She recommends the vocation of the daughter and invokes the protection of St. Josphe upon her entrance into the convent.
