Grannan, Father Charles P.:
Washington, D.C.
to Father (Joseph H.) McMahon:
(New York, New York)
He arrived from Germany two days before and could not answer sooner. Before accepting he will have to know how much work will be expected of him and what assistance he will have. The arduous duties at the Catholic University this year where he has two courses which he names raise a question in conscience whether he can accept. He lost time in his trip from Europe because he was quarantined. He called on no one in New York.

(Chicago, Illinois)
Referring to previously sent circulars pertaining to the petition on behalf of arbitration, Campbell wishes to know the number of bodies of the Catholic Church in the world, before which Onahan would propose to lay the petition for adoption, since the translating committee would like to know the number of "sets" to prepare. The Committees of correspondence of Protestant Churches often ask, what will be the attitude of the Catholic Church in regard to this petition. Onahan is asked to give some information on this.

Ogden, Henry:
New York, (New York)
to Monsignor Robert Seton:
Jersey City Heights, N(ew) J(ersey)
Ogden encloses an O(gden) and (C. Stacy) C(lark) check for $200 as the dividend to each of the six interested in the "Estate of Emily (Prime) Seton." The money is not wholly derived from the one's interest in the $75,000 Seton holds on his late property, Cragdon but is also derived from the rent of the building 67 Tenth Street and the water right rent. They have not received any of the interest paid the Trust Company but they hope Seton will give them power to collect. Cragdon was sold December 18, 1891. On that day $5,000 cash was paid and $20,000 paid on March 9, 1892 the day the title was passed. They owed Mutual Life Insurance Company $24,000 and their commission was $1,000. The balance of the $100,000 Seton holds a mortage for on Cragdon, say $75,000 at 5% interest. As the lots are sold, this $75,000 will be paid off in sums of not less than $5,000. When $17,000 has been paid, the mortgage on 67 Tenth Street there will be about $58,000 left; this means, say $9,500 each. At 5% this should give Seton $475 per annum. 67 Tenth Street could no doubt be sold at a good price but this water-right, although it yields such a sum as to represent $40,000, could not be sold for more than half that. The city is always just on the eve of taking away these water-rights which have come down from grants made 200 years ago. The best way to get his property separate and under Seton's sole control is to get Mrs. (Isabel Seton) Jevons to buy Seton's one sixth interest in 67 Tenth Street and the water-right.

Tarducci, Francesco:
Modena, (Italy)
to (Henry F.) Brownson:
(Detroit, Michigan)
Tarducci sends a copy of his work on Cabot published on the occasion of the Third Italian Historical Congress held in Genoa the last of September honoring the centenary of Columbus. Tarducci was at Genoa and met (Guiseppe G.) Baldi and went to see his Columbian Museum. Baldi has collected letters from almost 300 bishops and initiated the movement to petition the canonization of Columbus. In the museum there is everything connected with Columbus. They have not only all writings from the New World but all the editions and translations. Baldi has searched for the American translation of Tarducci's Columbus at all the bookdealers and has not been able to find it so it is not in his museum. Tarducci writes at Baldi's request; Tarducci has only one copy. Among others a professor of English at Modena asked about it. Tarducci would be willing to present Brownson's translation to those who desire it.

The chapter on Notre Dame is the only one devoted to any one institution. Mahon's job was merely fitting together the material.

Brother Maurelian has sent a copy of Onahan's letter concerning the Irish Linen and Lace Exhibits, to his Provincial at St. Louis, who will notify the correspondent in Dublin of Onahan's advice. He has forwarded a list to C. C. Bonney, requesting seating arrangements for those brothers who might come. Brother Maurelian does not know which Bishops may visit Chicago so he has sent Secretary Culp a printed list of all the prelates in the U.S. and Canada. He expects to see Culp in regard to provisions made for the Bishops' place in the parade. He has been under a strain in agitating the subject of a building for a liberal arts exhibits, or a separate building for educational exhibits, and he is pleased to see that the Directory has been forced to succumb to the demand of the country, to give recognition to educational exhibits. Onahan is asked to inform the brother of his telephone number, by which he may secure an appointment for a meeting.

Mosher, W(arren) E.:
Youngstown, O(hio)
to Father (Joseph H.) McMahon:
(New York, New York)
Mosher is sorry he could not attend the New York meeting to make a quorum, as he understands that only McMahon and Hardy were there. A business organization is essential. He suggests that the surplus be used to get a faculty. Father (Thomas P.) Joynt has not sent him a settlement, but there should be $500 on hand. He is sure they can get a faculty. Even three or four lectures a month would repay the fee of $5.00. They have gone too far to give up, and the New London session demonstrated that the Catholic public is eager for the work. Father Morgan M. Sheedy appointed (John A.) Mooney to the board of studies to offset the absence of (George Parsons) Lathrop. Harren is sick, Father (Thomas) Mcmillan too busy with the Columbian celebration. He would like to suggest a joint session of the committees in New York this month.

There seems to be a disposition on the part of some to disband the society. Vallette has fought this so long as there are life members. He argued that one way to make the society grow was by opening the library to scholars, intimating that they might get a lodging place with McMahon. Vallette was appointed a committee of one to see what could be done. He would like McMahon to tell him what can be done so that he can tell the executive committee which meets in a month or two.

Holaind, S.J., Father R(ene) I(sidore):
Woodstock, M(arylan)d
to Father (Joseph H.) McMahon:
(New York, New York)
He failed to answer sooner because he could not figure out the correct answer. As to the winter school, he thinks McMahon has taken a big contract since those at New London are all teaching and cannot write lectures every month. He himself has lectures in ethics at Georgetown. The lecture he will give at Georgetown would hardly answer McMahon's purposes. As to music he does not have books at Woodstock, but others at St. Francis Xavier would. Father (Alfred) Young, C.S.P. probably could write something. As to the summer school he could manage to help in the department of theoretical music, giving two or three lectures. He would arrange the details by a personal meeting in New York at Easter time. He lists 7 lectures. P.S. He has been asked for photographs and has one he can send.

Remembering Brownson's warm regard for (Eliza Allen) Starr and her having lectured in Detroit, Clarke asks Brownson and his fellow Catholics of Detroit to take part in the testimonial in her favor, the object of which will be understood from the enclosed paper. There are friends now at work on it in New York, Chicago, Boston, at (the University of) Notre Dame and other places; Miss Starr knows nothing of it and Clarke hopes she will not until he presents her with the proceeds in the name of her generous friends. Clarke will send more copies of the Testimonial if Brownson should need them.

McMahon should not be surprised if the professors treated him coldly on the question of preparing extra lectures. If McMahon needs others, he has Holaind's one lecture and he can give some of his Georgetown lecture and he can give some of his Georgetown lectures. It would have been better to be sure of the amount of help before announcing anything.

Spalding, Bishop J(ohn) L(ancaster):
Peoria, (Illinois)
to Archbishop (Michael Augustine Corrigan:
New York, New York)
Spalding thanks (Corrigan) for his kind letter from Chicago. It is their plain duty to stand by the Catholic schools. It is incomprehensible how prelates of the Church could imagine they had found a better way to solve their educational problem. Spalding deplores this tendency to try to unsettle things. According to the newspapers, the Pope has sent instructions to the Archbishops to consider what can be done for Catholic children who do not attend Catholic schools. The number of these children is deliberately exaggerated. The only thing to do is to show greater enthusiasm for parish schools and to build more of them. Where this is impossible pastors and parents should provide for instructions. The action of the Archbishops in Boston allowing Catholics to become Odd Fellows seems a fatal blunder, for the difference between the Odd Fellows and Free Masons is chiefly one of name. Spalding merely gives his opinion for what it is worth. The present state of doubt and uncertainty is the worst possible, and ought to cease to exist even if a direct appeal to the Pope be required.

Guichainville, le Metayer de:
New York, N. Y.
to Henry F. Brownson:
(Detroit, Michigan)
Guichainville thanks Brownson for his letter. He has been quite absorbed in his work and time has passed rapidly. Brownson's statement about the plagiarism discovered by Tarducci reminds him of a story of a spendthrift which he tells to Brownson. He then takes up with Brownson the Italian publication "Eco dell' Italia" which has an excellent illustrated part entitled: "Columbus and the Centenary of the Discovery of America etc." He remarks that some say the photographic reproduction is that of Genes. He makes many detailed remarks about it especially the lack of sign of the cross, especially since the cross is lacking in that of Genes. He makes the point that Columbus always used the sign of the cross in all serious correspondence. Guichainville will go to see the edition of the "L'ecodell' Italia". He thanks Brownson for telling him of the Ave Maria. The French government to which he is attached is making enquiries concerning a depot of which the biographers of Columbus write and of which he knows nothing. He has written to find out about a certain publication privately printed which contains his letter. He closes the letter assuring Brownson of his devotion and sincere attachment.

Such a book would not be as popular as a life of Columbus, yet if the original work was meritorious and the translation well-done, it ought to have sufficient sale to justify its being issued. They would probably think favorable of it if it were submitted to them.
