Catholic Summer School

A first draft of a Prospectus of the Catholic Summer School to be held at New London, Connecticut. It is the outgrowth of the Catholic Educational Union and Catholic Reading Circles. It is planned to have a central meeting once a year at a summer resort. The School was organized at the Catholic Club in New York in May. Father Morgan M. Sheedy was elected president; Warren E. Mosher was elected secretary-treasurer. The Catholic Reading Circle Review was chosen as the organ of the school. The prospectus announces that New London has been selected as the site of the school, the objectives are stated and the means of recreation and terms for membership.

(MacDonnell) Sister Mary Magdalene: Lisbon, (Portugal)
 to Father (Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Their Cardinal Patriarch (Joseph Sebastian Neto) has gone to Rome taking Father ( ) Hickey with him. They travel as two simple religious for the Cardinal gives all he has to the poor. Financial affairs are very bad and people say the Portuguese will have to consent to a foreign administration. There was a grand Kermess got up by the Dowager Queen Maria Pia for the victims of shipping disasters, inundations and strikes. Queen Amelie had a tournament for the same purpose. It is expected she will get the Golden Rose of the Pope this Pentecost. Maria Pia hates her, she has thrown off her widow's robes and spends money like water. Sister enjoyed Hudson's castigation of the Irish Catholic. That was the paper she meant to complain of.

 to Father Joseph H. McMahon: (New York, New York)

After receiving McMahon's letter he called on (Marc F.) Vallette, but finding him out he left a note telling Vallette that McMahon at Mooney's suggestion asked if he would give a course of lectures on American Catholic history at the Catholic Summer School. Business affairs have kept Mooney from writing. His engagements reach as far ahead as September and he is also summoned the next day for jury duty. He sees in the journals that McMahon is pushing things. He cannot attend the meeting of which he has a notice from McMahon.

 to Father (Joseph H.) McMahon: (New York, New York)

He asks whether Henry Brownson could give something, say on Balmes.

(1892) Sun. Eve
Mullany, Father J(ohn) F.: Syracuse, N(ew) Y(ork)
 to Father (Joseph H.) McMahon: (New York, New York)

Mullany sends Syracuse papers on the Catholic Summer School. There are very many errors in the statement. He is pleased that the location is fixed but he thinks that the St. Lawrence Woods would have been a better location because the air at the sea shore does away with the desire to study. Now that it is settled he will do all he can for the success of the undertaking. The excursion to the islands should attract national attention. He met Webb who was pleased but hoped that the north woods would be considered for the permanent location. He regretted that there were two or three firebrands on their committee, They came without invitation. He himself lost patience for a while because the men from New York had everything in their hands. He had secured the interest of the New York Central in the movement. But he is pleased now. The Citizens of Clayton at a mass meeting promised to raise a large fund if they would go there this year. Father (Joseph) Conroy and Edward Brice telegraphed Mullany asking the committee to go to Clayton. He told them that the site had already been chosen. Mullany asks McMahon if he saw the remarks of Bishop (Henry) Gabriels. They are good. Last evening he met Bishop (P.A.) Ludden for the first time since the excursion and he said that this was a fad and would soon pass. Mullany warns McMahon that they must be above criticism. He tells him this because he noticed that McMahon was easily cast down.

(1892)
New York, Archdiocese of: (New York, New York)

This document answers the letter of the Bishops of the New York Province concerning the letter of Pope Leo XIII of May 23, 1892. The question was asked if the Bishop in his answer to the Pope was denying that Archbishop (John) Ireland had made a historical error in saying that there was a fear of anti-Catholicism in the country. The answer is that the Bishops had a right to make this note but the canonists make a distinction as to whether the error had to do with the substance of the decision or something alien to the decision. They say that there was no error in what pertains to the essence of the decision. There is no doubt about the basis of the Roman decision. The Bishops, however, can send a new proof of their contention without irreverence to the Holy Father. (Note signed by) Archbishop M(ichael) A(ugtine) C(orrigan): Remarks by the author of the pamphlet "Tolerari Potest." It is possible that the Holy Father never saw Archbishop Ireland's Memorial or heard of the threat of possible dangers ahead in America.

Onahan, William J(ames): Chicago, Illinois
 to 

Onahan lauds the Catholic laity in their loyalty, and their union with the hierarchy. Those who make trouble shall be unsuccessful; there should be no hesitancy in trusting the laity. Even though the Church can get along without them, the laity can be of great value in promoting the work of religion. The time has come for the laity to demonstrate its usefulness to the Church.

Onahan, William J.: (Chicago, Illinois)
 to Mrs. Bertha M. H. Palmer: (Chicago, Illinois)

In her letter of the 10th she asked him to have the Columbian Catholic Congress consider the work which women accomplish under the guidance of the Church. He is heartily in favor of the subject being brought before the Congress. As Mrs. Palmer said the history of the missions conducted by Roman Catholic women in this country alone would be of the most thrilling interest, and would demonstrate what a powerful influence the religious communities have had on the country. Onahan goes on to praise the work of the Sisters and he will give all his cooperation to Mrs. Palmer and her good work. (Rough draft.)

F(ord)'s answer to (Grover) Cleveland at the Catholic Club was capital; it should not be allowed to die, but should go the rounds of the papers to give their friends a good hearty laugh. The remark was immense; F(ord) fires off good things all the time. He feels blue about the defeat; F(ord) should drop in oftener.

It is running behind and if Ford would feel like subscribing it would help. Ford promised to put him on the exchange list, but he never sees the (New York) Freeman('s Journal.)

(Ford, Austin E.): New York, (New York)
 to Archbishop John Ireland: St. Paul, Minn(esota)

(Ford) had a talk a few days ago with Archbishop (Michael Augustine) Corrigan on the subject of Ireland's Memorial. (Ford) feels he should allay certain impressions which Ireland labors under in connection with the actions of Corrigan. (Ford) asked Corrigan whether his opposition to Ireland's Faribault-Still- water school arrangement was prompted by any personal motive. Corrigan answered most emphatically no. There can be found no utterance of Corrigan's anywhere in criticism until his conscientious judgement was asked. Was he not entitled to that? Corrigan said he never initiated any of the discussions in which his name was arrayed against Ireland's. Corrigan has no malice towards Ireland and has in nothing been actuated by personal motives. (Ford) then said that it has been said that Corrigan made unfair use of possession of the Memorial and sought to influence the case by outside pressure while it was under advisement. Corrigan said there was no mark of secrecy on the document as it came to him, and he felt that he was in no wise transgressing the laws of etiquette. The copy in Corrigan's possession came from a well-known ecclesiastic whose name he cannot give. Corrigan cabled to substantiate the further authenticity of it and received a confirmatory answer. (Ford) asked if there was in the brandishing of the cablegram at the consecration dinner of the Bishop of Ogdensburgh an undue exultation over the supposed defeat of Ireland? Corrigan said that there was far more made of that than he ever dreamed. Corrigan read it as a conclusion to his remarks and the papers did the rest. (Ford) said that under the circumstances it was expected that Corrigan would call on Ireland when Ireland returned. Corrigan said this was not the rule. It is customary for the visiting prelate to call upon the resident bishop, and Ireland had done so on previous occasions. Corrigan was disappointed when Ireland did not call. Corrigan said that when Ireland returned, he intended to maintain silence on all subjects of a controversial nature. When some of Corrigan's priests began to speak and the Sunday Democrat continued to criticize, (Ford) asked if that was not reason for Ireland to feel that Corrigan was following him up unnecessarily. Corrigan said he was not responsible for the utterances and his injunction has been to say nothing to the newspapers. Such was (Ford)'s talk with Corrigan. If (Ford) can be the happy medium of straightening out any misunderstanding existing between these two distinguished prelates, he will not feel sorry that he has been unwittingly brought into this matter.
