The Sisters reached Lincoln, (Nebraska) safely and a letter from Mother (Mary Walburga S.H.C.J.), from Avoca, (Minnesota), announces that they already have daily Mass in the Chapel there. She expects her father's visit this coming week.

Muir, Marion:
(Marrison, Colorado)
to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, C.S.C.:
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Muir is pleased that Hudson liked her poem. Most speakers on the Blessed Mother do not please Muir because they speak of her not as a lady but as a anatomical curiosity. What amazes Muir is why (Eleanor) Donnelly doesn't fall in love. Muir may never marry but she has never found any man less than a gentleman. If women would study men a little closer they would not find them so bad. She thanks Hudson for the picture. Muir afflicted Professor (Arthur) Stace with some of her religious doubts so that probably in self-defense he recommended her to Hudson's advice.

Mother Walburga writes to thank McMaster for the receipt for the Freeman's Journal. The Convent house is badly out of repairs and the nuns are cleaning it. The (Convent) in Lincoln, (Nebraska), will flourish from all accounts. Mr. And Mrs. Fitzgerald show great kindness and do not doubt that the place will be given. There is need for a great many prayers for the success of the Convent. She asks for prayers from (the Carmelites) in Baltimore, (Maryland). There are 2 Masses each morning and as soon as the altars reach them they will be able to keep the Blessed Sacrament permanently. She sends her regards to Gertrude (McMaster). P.S.

The people of France are awakening and will demand the restoration of the exiled Religious to their homes.

She hopes the printing of Jenkins' letter will not encroach upon McMaster's time and sends her regards to Ger trude (McMaster). P.S. Father Jenkins has suggested that she send McMaster a circular publicizing the school but since the printer has not finished them, she will send the notice they had printed some time ago. Father Jenkins has decided to forward his letter himself and so McMaster can expect it by separate mail.

The Sisters are not yet in the Convent but the repairs to the school and convent are being made. Meanwhile the nuns are with Mrs. Fitzgerald, who, along with her husband, is exceedingly king to them. It is impossible yet to say how the school will be patronized but Mr. Fitzgerald believes there will be a good number of pupils, both Catholics and Protestants. She sends her regards to Gertrude (McMaster), Sister St. John (McMaster), (S.H.C.J.) and to Sister Teresa of Jesus (McMaster), (D.Cn.).

McMaster, James Alphonsus:
New York, (New York)
to Archbishop M(icheal) A. Corrigan:
New York, (New York)
McMaster asks Archbishop Michael A. Corrigan's pardon for this week's Freeman's Journal and for the aberrations of the previous week. His time has been completely absorbed by his family lately. The previous week he saw his olnly son set out from Baltimore, (Maryland), to begin his career on the sea. He was informed by the Brooklyn Eagle that it was an Oxford man who criticized his translation, and while planning his answer, returned home from Baltimore to find Corrigan's letter. The Oxford man, being a high ranking member of the Press Association, constitutes a pretentious quarry to hunt and for this reason McMaster will answer him thoroughly. He is confident as to the correctness of his etymologies, if not, the living Latin of today discards every rule of the Latin of old and removes the last reason why boys should be taught the pagan classics. Several mistakes were made in the Freeman's Journal of June 3 through sheer carelessness but he will make full reparations for them as soon as he has time. Corrigan has mentioned that Pope Gregory XVI wrote at least one encyclical before his Mirari Vos, but the words of the first sentence of Mirari Vos contradict this. How can such a statement be adjusted?

Norfleet received the two pamphlets on scepticism and science. He read the lectures with interest, but has not quite finished Father (John) Zahm's which he liked better because of the subject and because he solves a problem which often troubled Norfleet. Is Christianity reconcilable with evolution? Christians, Zahm says, may believe theistic evolution, if they think it sufficiently established. Would Hudson suggest a course of reading that will comprehend the theory and then its relation to the Church. Norfleet is going to be a lawyer, but he is somewhat fearful of the pecuniary prospects; the profession being crowded in North Carolina.

He approves of anything Brownson may do in the publishing line, but is too feeble to do anything himself. He has written a few words on the third volume of Brownson's Works in the Catholic World for July to encourage the success of the undertaking and out of gratitude to the memory of the great philosopher.

Wilson is the patron of the local library and Galvin, a law student in his office, has been raising money among the Catholics of the town to pay for the set.

(Rio de Janiero, Brazil)
Her father was at the Convent (June 27, 1883) and told her he was writing, to make the steamer on (June 30, 1883), so she is making use of the same opportunity. His letter of (June 18, 1883) was gladly received. She thought he had the night watch every night for the duration of the voyage, but her father told her otherwise.

Seymour completes her work on Flemish and German Art with the two enclosed papers. Now she would like to know how many papers she has sent to Hudson, and how much money she has coming to her for them. She doesn't need the money now but will in August. The story of Haydn's life is good but not well translated. The translator is not familiar with English equivelants for German idioms. There is an error in the story of Johanna Keller.

to (John Alphonsus McMaster):
(Rio de Janiero, Brazil)
They miss him, and are anzious about his health and welfare. If he is good and devout, he will get along. His allusion to her as the "dear old woman" is sweet, but not very complimentary. She wonders if he was seasick. The Browns, the Harpers, the Keileys, and Mrs. Hanword have all inquired about his health. She greeted Bob Lahy at the Church door and he seemed very surprised. A girl whom John would have liked to meet stayed with her the other day. Mrs. Moore died (June) 8, (1883). Her father looks anxiously every morning for news of him.

to James Alphonsus McMaster:
