Benziger, Louis:
New York, (New York)
to Henry F. Brownson:
Detroit, Mich(igan)
In answer to Brownson's kind favor to meet him and a number of other Catholic gentlemen to complete the preliminary arrangements for a Congress of Catholic laymen in Baltimore in November, Benziger regrets to say that his health has been so poor of late that he could not well venture the trip at present. Also, his only partner is in Europe and he could hardly leave the business. He wishes every success and hopes to be present at the meeting in Baltimore.

Donnelly, Ch(arle)s F.:
Boston, (Massachusetts)
to Henry F. Brownson:
Detroit, (Michigan)
The circular letter sent by W(illiam) J. Onahan has just reached Donnelly through Father P(atrick A.) Halpin, S.J. It will be impossible for him to arrange to attend the meeting of the committee at Detroit, June 5th. He is in favor of the proposed Congress of Catholic laymen and believes it will be an important step in the advancement of Catholicity in this country. The Church is composed of the body of the faithful, and laymen generally forget it is their duty to bear an important part in her work, as members of the Church of Christ, and not leave the burden of the labor on the priesthood, as it has been left up to the present time, in the United States. In naming delegates to the Congress from Massachusetts the Committee should not forget to designate Dr. Thomas Dwight of this city, a highly educated, straight-forward Catholic who has occupied for some years past the Chair of Anatomy, formerly held in Harvard University by Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes.

Keiley, John D.:
New York, (New York)
to W(illiam) J. Onahan:
Chicago, Ill(inois)
Keiley has received Onahan's letter and enclosure. He wishes the Catholic Congress abundant success. He had Cardinal Gibbons and his attendants as guests in transit, during his recent trip to New Orleans and back to Baltimore. The Cardinal is greatly interested in the matter of the Congress. He feels that he probably would be of little service had he time to come, but states that since he was not invited by the committee, he will not intrude but thanks Onahan for his consideration. He sends his family's regards to Onahan's and hopes that they will make their home with him, on the occasion of the Onahans next visit.
(A notation on the back page by Onahan. He telegraphed Mayor Keiley on receipt of this letter. Keiley was invited in the name of the committee and it is hoped that he would still attend the Detroit Meeting.)

Onahan, W(illiam) J.:
Chicago, (Illinois)
to Henry F. Brownson:
Detroit, Mich(igan)
Greatly as he desires to be present for the meeting of the committee of arrangements for the Congress of Catholic Laymen, Onahan may not be able to get away from his official duties and business. In the event of his absence, he informs Brownson of what steps he has taken in regard to it. He sent out some 25 invitations, (Henry J.) Spaunhorst took care of the German representatives, and Brownson on doubt attended to others; and Onahan trusts that there will be a fair representation from among those invited. The program is fairly outlined in the circular. The work for the committee then is to issue the call for the Congress, stating the conditions of representation and briefly outlining the objects; to select a committee of management and a local committee of active, energetic Baltimore and Washington men who will arrange for the hall, etc.; to chose a committee on the subjects to be considered, which shall be responsible for the papers to be read; to name a committee to select the temporary organization or affairs of the Congress; and to name a committee on correspondence. Onahan does not doubt that the meeting's action will be satisfactory and will open the way to a happy and harmonious gathering in Baltimore next November of representative American Catholic laymen, united with the Hierarchy and clergy on lines of Catholic thought and action in everything that concerns the welfare of the Church, the good of society and the permanent prosperity and and asks Brownson to offer his respects to all who shall attend.

To Papin, he suffered martyrdom because of the suffering he experienced. He recently made a trip to Chicago with the college band where they played for the laying of the cornerstone for the new school which the Christian Brothers are erecting there. His mother thinks of going to North Lake, Wisconsin. The "tourists" are at present in London; Vee writes that he has seen all the grand museums, Marie, too, is more than delighted.

No doubt Edwards has heard of the Johnstown Flood. 17,000 reported lost. Brother Raphael whose relatives live ther went to the place yesterday. It is reported that a Catholic Church was swept away, but a corner where the statue of the Blessed Virgin stood is left standing, the lamp is still burning. Old Mr. Fenlon died Sunday. P.S.

The success accomplished towards the erection of a statue to (Orestes A. Brownson) is such as to warrant the hope of seeing it standing in Central Park. Clarke has arranged for two lectures here in November by Eliza Allen Starr of Chicago, which with what is in the Treasury will complete New York's quota towards the fund. Clarke inquires whether Brownson or any of Dr. Brownson's family possesses a bust or statue of any kind, or cast of his face, or picture of any kind taken from life, which when needed, will serve the committee in arranging for the statue. Clarke has been requested to add to the committee (John) La Farge, the artist, who is in favor of a bust rather than a full length statue. Any suggestions Brownson may wish to make will be very acceptable to the committee.

The work was undertaken at the express order of Pope Leo (XIII). Edwards told Gasquet about the influence the Ave Maria possessed. He would esteem it a great favor if Hudson should think the book worthy of a notice in the columns of the Ave Maria.

And to see how (Luigi) Gregori is advancing with the paintings of Bishop Carroll and George Washington which Keane ordered. If Hudson knows where (Charles Warren) Stoddard is, he is to send him the enclosed and to pray that God may fit Stoddard for the work for which Keane has engaged him.

Mayor Crezier, who returned yesterday from Springfield, must return this evening on important public business that cannot be delayed, and since Onahan is by office next in authority, he cannot in his absence absent himself even for a day. Also he has been named to act in forwarding donations for the sufferers of the Johnstown calamity and every available moment must be given to this work of duty and charity. He is confident that this is suficient explanation and reason for his unavoidable absence. He thinks he omitted the name of Dan(ie)l J.

When Father van der Eerden met Brownson in Chicago he asked him to find a genuine Dutchman to take part in the Catholic Congress and has at last found one who will be a credit to the Dutch and no discredit to the Congress, (J.H.M.) Wigman, an attorney of law of Green Bay, Wisconsin, president of the Catholic Knights of Wisconsin, commander of the order of St. Gregory, and stands high in the favor of Bishop (Frederic Xavier Katzer) of Green Bay. Father van der Eerden read a few days ago in a Catholic paper a suggestion to have a Catholic Congress, a new proof to him that the idea will find favor. He has spoken to Father (James F. X.) Hooffer, moderator of the Catholic Club of St. Louis, to write to (William J.) Onahan on the subject but he does not know whether he has as yet. All to whom he has spoken on the subject are very highly in favor of the proposed Congress. May God bless. Brownson's noble efforts in this good cause.

(Hill), C.P., Father Edmund:

to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, (C.S.C.):
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Archbishop (Patrick W. Riordan) received them kindly and sent them to the hospitality of the Jesuit Fathers. They had a favored voyage to Panama, and landed at Iquique, Callao, the port of Lima and Guayaquil. At Peru's fallen capital, Lima, Hill said Mass in the convent now occupied by the Ladies of the Sacred Heart, though it was built by the Jesuits for their own use. The Jesuits serve the adjoining Church of San Pedro, which is remarkable for the number of paintings it contains. Religion is in a deplorable state in Peru. They were agreeably surprised in Panama as well as in Colon or Aspinwall. The bishop of Panama asked them to go to Colon to fill in for the priest there who was ill. From Colon they took a steamer for Vera Cruz, where they landed the following Sunday and then journeyed to Mexico City. They visited their brethern at Tacubayo, outside Mexico City not far from Chapultepec, the site of Montezuma's palace. After visiting the shrine at Guadalupe and their house at Tacubayo, they entered the United States at El Paso. Hill is sending Hudson his "Stelle Matutina" in the hope that it will appear in the Ave Maria. He is uncertain how long they will remain in San Francisco for their plans call for them to eventually travel to St. Louis. Have Hill's Monica poems appeared in the Ave Maria?

Binsse, L(ouis) B.:
New York, (New York)
to Henry F. Brownson:
Detroit, (Michigan)
The first intimation Binsse has had of his appointment on the New York Committee of arrangements for the Catholic Congress reached him in the columns of the Catholic Review. He is now pretty well advanced in years, averse to leaving his home, and cannot see how he can be of any service on the committee. The Catholic World will publish soon an account of the preliminary preparations and opening of the Congress held in Madrid last April followed by an account of the proceedings and conclusions arrived at. Both are written by a gentleman in Madrid and contain much useful and interesting information. Binsse knew Brownson's father (Orestes A. Brownson) very well, and now one of his pleasing recollections is to have suggested to Father (Isaac T.) Hecker the idea of getting up a fund to purchase the annuity which he so richly deserved and to have contributed to it himself. Nor can he forget his first acquaintence with his writing in an article contributed by him before he became a Catholic to the Democratic Review. He was perfectly astounded at the vigour, logic and fearlesness of the article.

The child is mentioned in Christ's Folk. Francesca has written Stoddard a letter of condolence on the death of Father (Joseph) Damien (DeVeuster). Brother Columbkille (C.S.C., Thomas Carmody) was a sweet soul. Stoddard hopes to see Hudson at the Catholic University in Washington. He inquires if (James Farnham) Edwards is in Europe.

Foy, Peter L.:
St. Louis, (Missouri)
to Henry F. Brownson:
Detroit, (Michigan)
In answer to Brownson's letter of the 8th Foy asks whether it would not be better to ask persons outside the committees to write the several papers, requiring that the papers be sent into the Committee at an early date, so that there would be full time to supplement them with essays by members of the committee. There is nothing in the action taken thus far to limit the number of papers, and even if a greater number should be contributed than could be conveniently read, they could all appear in the published proceedings. He has no objection to preparing a paper on charities, but wishes Brownson would ask somebody else to write one too. Should the writer not cover the ground, he will gladly take up the points omitted. He thinks it desirable to enlist as many able men as possible in this work. He will be glad to receive a copy of the minutes at Brownson's earliest convenience. The sooner Brownson issues the call for the Congress, the better, for very few so far seem to be aware that there is to be one. One word more: in the call Foy would name it a lay congress.

Archbishop (William H.) Gross informed him that the Catholic Lay Congress would assemble the week before the ecclesiastical celebration, November 4th. He would like information as to dates, so that he can arrange the time of the lectures, and since Miss Starr will be his guest she may also wish to attend the Centennial and he must keep the two apart in time. His brother-in-law, Thomas J. Semmes, has written about the Congress. He asks whether Brownson has seen Sebbie & Co.'s first sections of the Illustrated History of the Catholic Church, and asks to be remembered to Mr. and Mrs. ( ) Moran.

Brownson's letter addressed to Mother (M. Aloysius, O.S.U.), Superior at Toledo, was forwarded to Sister Mary of the Annunciation, who is the sister-in-law of Judge (Edmund F.) Dunne, to furnish information about him. She encloses part of an envelope such as he generally uses and a sheet of "The Toy", a paper started Aug. 15, 1888, by Brian Dunne, the youngest child of the family. She asks Brownson to mention her communication to him when he writes to Judge Dunne. From his name, she is inclined to think Brownson to be connected with the celebrated Orestes (A.) Brownson. She has met several of the clergy of Detroit, among them Mgr. (Edward) Joos, Father (Camillus P.) Maes, now Bishop of Covington, and Father (Ernest) Van Dyke, a connection of the Brownson family. If convenient, the Ursulines of Toledo and Oakland would be pleased to have Brownson call. The address is Hon. E. F. Dunne, San Antonio, Florida.

He is on of the most influential catholic laymen in the East, always active in every generous work, and Onahan regards his cooperation in the Congress as most important. He had opportunity for only a few moments conversation with him on the subject, and Brownson is asked to inform him fully. Onahan has just returned from Johnstown and has his hands full of work.

Onahan, W(illiam) J.:
Chicago, (Illinois)
to Henry F. Brownson:
Detroit, (Michigan)
In consequence of his absence from the city for several days at Pittsburgh and Johnstown, Onahan lost sight of the doings of the conference in Detroit, of which he has had only the most meagre accounts. From the brief press notices the representation from the East was nil, except as to (James H.) Dormer; and from the West only (Henry J.) Spaunhorst and (Peter L.) Foy. This is too bad. Unless the interest of the Eastern Catholics can be stirred up the convention will be a fizzle. He has not heard from Spaunhorst or anybody of what was done or projected, except two brief notes and a letter from (John J.) Hyde. He trusts the affair can and will will be worked up. He is not free now, as formerly, to devote himself to it, but he will try to do all he can from his desk. The duties of his present position are extremely onerous and allow him little time for outside work, nor can he promise himself more freedom in the near future. But no will try to take care of any correspondence imposed on him. He has not heard from Archbishop (John) Ireland Lately, and has delayed writing to him until he could give him a resume of what exactly was done. The Johnstown business has engaged nearly all his time the past ten days. He has had charge of the subscriptions raised here and was entrusted with the duty of forwarding them to Pittsburgh. $150,000 was raised in Chicago.

He agrees with Brownson that the names of the entire committee should be attached. If he remembers the terms of the call, the date for the meeting has been changed. He does not like the omission of the temperance and saloon question and regards it as one of the most important in the list of subjects—and he is not a "temperance crank" either. He would like to see it restored. The exacting nature of his official duties are such that it is very doubtful if he will be able to attend the Congress.

They decided to hold the meeting Nov(ember) 11 and 12 in Baltimore and appointed a committee to attend to details. The object of the Congress is to produce harmony of thought and action, and to stimulate thought.

Wendelin, the sisters and Bishop Hermann Koeckmann as well as priests of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts desire articles owned by DeVeuster. Father James Bissel who frequently heard DeVeuster's confession is stationed at Kalawao until Father (Lambert) Conrardy's recovery and return for Honolulu. DeVeuster directed Dutton to take charge and put in order money matters, letters and papers. The Sisters have charge of the Girl's Home at Kalaupapa and are to have the Boy's Home.

Stoddard used to write for the Australian and the Victorian Review. Stoddard plans to leave soon for Nuremburg, then to Bonn where Davis Vail is to try again to pass the Harvard examination. From Bonn they go to Paris for the exposition. Last Sunday Stoddard saw a Passion Play in the Tryol, at a village more primitive than Oberammergau.

Jacobini who is very rich and does not want masses. He knows Jacobini is a good protector of (Notre Dame, etc.), but not for money sake.

Clarke, Richard H.:
New York, (New York)
to Henry F. Brownson:
(Detroit, Michigan)
Having received information fixing the dates of the celebrations at Baltimore and Washington, Clarke postponed (Eliza Allen) Starr's lectures so as to follow those dates. He sends Brownson a copy of the Catholic News containing and article on the centenary and Congress, in which it is suggested that the Catholic societies in the U. S. send delegations to the Congress. There is great danger of the Congress becoming unwieldy if this is done, as Catholic societies are not counted by thousands, such as the Young Men's Societies, the Temperance Societies' Union, Catholic Knights, St. Vincent do Paul, etc. Clarke presumes the committees will regulate this with safety to the Congress, while the societies can all send delegates to the public celebrations. He hopes the Congress will not be simply a glorification over the past, in the nature of a mutual admiration society; but that its chief aim will be the attainment of great good for the future. He would like Brownson to send him the first article of the Detroit paper, giving the names of those who attended. He encloses a copy of the Brownson Memorial address and will send a copy of the New York Committee's Circular.

Dunne, E(dmund) F.:
San Antonio, Fl(orid)a
to Henry F. Brownson:
Detroit, Mich(igan)
Sister (Mary of the) Annunciation has sent from Pittsburgh Brownson's letter asking for Dunne's address in regard to the Catholic Congress. This is a little flattering to Dunne, showing that notwith-standing his having been hidden here in the woods for the last eight years he is not entirely forgotten. They did forget him in their invitations to the university last spring. Having had some experience in organizing conventions and feeling a great interest in the matter, he will make some suggestions and for-ward them to Brownson so that he can decide conveniently. It then occurred to him that he could best illustrate by sending an imaginery report of a session as it might be advantageously managed. Of course the resolutions are crude and merely suggestive, his idea being that they ought to be settled on as soon as possible and a committee set to work to select the men who would be best fitted to make the appropriate responses. The contributions should be worked up like an editor would work up a number of a magazine. By all means try to get (John) Lawler of Prairie du Chien. He is a whole battery of big guns, grand personal presence, big voice, powerful speaker and per-fectly sound for a response on colonization. Bishop (John L.) Spalding and Archbishop (Patrick John) Ryan are our best orators, the latter the much better of the two and has great power, the former sometimes nervous and strained but generally good and inspiring. Dunne is not at all satisfied with his resolution on capital and labor and hopes it may be bettered. All may be bettered, but he is particularly dissatisfied with that one because it does not seem to amount to anything practically. When he gets Brownson's letter he will write again. He hopes to see a great demonstration at the Congress, not as to numbers, but showy intellectually, for it will be judged critically. Catholics have set themselves against the spirit of the age, and rightly so, for it is a detestable spirit, and is sharpest men will "hawk and tear" at the Congress

to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, C.S.C.:
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Richardson thanks Hudson for the Ave Maria and the kind interest. The Salt Lake Tribune has protested vigorously and Muir believes that a priest instead of a minister should have put on the commission studying the Indian problem, it would have made sense. Richardson believes it better to put Indians where whites are strong than in a lonely place, if they are under proper management.

It may be that the inmates of that castle felt some interest in hearing of the existence of the great niece of Archbishop (John) Carroll. She has recently attended a grand wedding in Georgetown, that of Miss Waggaman to Mr. Eugene Ives, New York State senator. They received a special blessing from the Pope.

After a month's visit in England, he arrived in France and was met at a Paris railroad station by Mr. Leo Huffer, a friend of Bishop Keane and Monsignor O'Connell. One can scarcely realize that Paris contains a mob ready at any moment to turn this scene of beauty into a foretaste of hell. He was recently returning home when he found himself facing a mob of excited men marching down the avenue, who yelled at his driver to halt, but when they saw that Edwards was a foreigner, they let him pass.

Dunne,E(dmund) F.:
San Antonio, Fl(orid)a
to Henry F. Brownson:
Detroit, Mich(igan)
Dunne has received Brownson's letter of the 15th and will prepare a 30 minutes paper on Education for the Catholic Congress, as he suggests, and will if possible attend the Congress to read it. He will transmit the paper to Brownson before September 30. It seems to appear from Brownson's letter that the Congress is to have more of a lay character than Dunn supposed while writing the suggestions he forwarded yesterday. But Brownson says the project has been laid before (James) Cardinal Gibbons and has his approval. That will be suffecient to recommend it to Catholics, but he thinks that it would be well to in form persons preparing papers as to what is to be the exact status of the Congress, as such knowledge will help them in flaming their utterances. He enquires the meaning of Brownson's statement that "a paper drawn in a certain way will start the discussion of the subject on a true basis", and asks whether it means discussion at large throughout the country or only in the Congress after the reading of the papers. He would like to know because of its effect on shaping certain parts of the paper, but he is not seeking to shape the action of the Committee and will conform to it. He thanks the committee for the compliment of placing the paper on education in his hands and for the offer to waive his personal attendance provided he finishes the paper. P.S.(June 25): He assumes his paper meant to be confinedto elementary education, the Catholic attitude toward public schools, since Brownson refers to his Arizona address, and cannot mean for him to take in all education, at least in 30 minutees. The 30 minutes suit him but he wants to know what he is to do with the time. He does not see the newspapers much and has heard nothing about the Congress except a little uncomplimentary skit in the New York Freeman's Journal and asks Brownson to inform him, if Brownson wants to have oral discussion in the Congress on matters treated of in papers,he ought to settle on a program of subjects and send them around at least to all who furnish papers. All those questions are a little out of the daily mental beat of Catholic lay workers in this country. If they are expected to talk about them in the Congressthey ought to have some notice to furbish up a little, otherwise it will be a rusty sort of Congress comparing unfavourably to those in Europe. European co-religionists will scan the proceedings closely to see if the "dollar catchers" have "caught on" to anything else. The reputation of the lay Catholics of America is in Brownson's hands. Ought not this Catholic Congress give the new Catholic University some kind of a "send-off"? What would Brownson think of a paper on the convent education of Catholic girls, is it not a question of national importance? True, there is no particular grievance in that matter, except the cost.

Shea would like to gratify the Committee and mankind generally by such a paper, but (Orestes A. Brownson) apart, what have American Catholics done in the domain of literature, science or art that can be paraded? None of the great poets, orators, historians, leaders in natural or medical science, in painting, sculpture, architecture, in great inventions have been Catholics. Will it not do more harm than good to get up and parade fifth rate people and extol them as paragons of excellence. If he could only see his way clear he would be happy to go at the paper, but it is like the chapter on the snakes in Ireland or Tagliaferri's chapter on what the Constitution says against the right of a state to secede. Some other topic ought to be selected; there are subjects more safe—Catholic educational work in the century, work of Catholic women during the century (many Catholic writers have been women and can be named here), Catholic principles the soundest basis.

Shea, John Gilmary:
Elizabeth, N(ew) J(ersey)
to Henry F. Brownson:
(Detroit, Michigan)
Shea is much like the rest of mankind in his ignorance of Catholic Congresses. Unless the Catholic Union, formerly Xavier Union, has some reports he does not see how he could venture to treat a subject of w which he is profoundly ignorant. If Archbishop (Michael A.) Corrigan asked (Frederic R.) Coudert, Shea thinks he would take up a subject and treat it well. Is the Congress to have any representatives from Canada and Mexico? With a man like Mercier from Canada and Icazbalceta from Mexico, the interest would broaden. Masonic action against the Church is skillfully conducted on the same lines, but if Catholics fight as detached regiments, they are sure to be beaten in detail. Thrown out of employment at the age of 65, Shea had to look for means of support. (Herman) Ridder offered him the editorship of the (Catholic) News and three days employment. It is not enough and he is looking for additional work. What may turn up he can not tell. His duties are not very onerous, and he will retain his position there if possible; but a position taking up all of his time is, of course, to be preferred. He is now able to get about the house with a cane but he uses crutches in the streets. There is too much rush in New York for him to be able to get about there except by riding.

Dunne, E(dmund) F.:
San Antonio, F(lorid)a
to H(enry) F. Brownson:
Detroit, Mich(igan)
Dunne has just received the Catholic Review for June 29 which give him the first information he has received outside of Brownson's letters about the proposed Catholic Congress. By that he sees that Brownson does not have charge of the organization of the Congress directly, though indirectly, if he determines which papers are to be read, he will determine the business to come before the Congress. So the committee on organization is (William J.) Onahan, (Henry J.) Spaunhorst and (Daniel A.) Rudd. He supposses O. stands for Oireland, S. for Germany, R. for Africa, and does not know who stands for France, Spain, and the United States. Of course Brownson has nothing to do with that and neither has he. As to paper, he supposses he may continue to make suggestions. From the Review he sees that there is to be a paper on Societies. That is broad. He meant to suggest a paper on the Catholic Church and secret societies, because the attitude of the Church towards secret societies should be explained. Once he found in the far West an Irish Catholic lawyer, a U.S. district attorney, who was a Mason and assured Dunne that he had never heard that the Catholic Church was seriously opposed to the order. He is afraid there is going to be a little jealously in the East about the Congress' being so much a Western move. Detroit, Chicago, St. Louis, and Cinoinatti! Can such things be started without New York, Boston, and Philadelphia. O., S. and R. may "call spirits from the vasty deep" of the Eastern coast "but will they come?" But they may be only a committee to draft a form of call for others to sign and get it signed generally in all parts. He hopes so, and wishes to hear as soon as anything is determined about order of business in the Congress.
