Stockley, W(illiam) F.:
Fredericton, N(ew) B(runswick)
to Father (Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.):
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Is it wise to send a ms. without asking Hudson beforehand? Could Hudson make use of the Aubrey de Vere letter? Stockley quotes the Baltimore Council. As the "Tablet" lately said outsiders think that in the Catholic Church it is all pay, pay, pay. But this scandal-talking age is meant to be saved. Stockley has two papers to send. He had in mind something on intolerance stirred by Cardinal Newman in the last Ave Maria and by some private letters of (Charles C.) Starbuck.

(Carroll, Francis E.) Frank:
Boston, (Massachusetts)
to (James F. Edwards:
Notre Dame, Indiana)
He has just received the water for analysis; it shows progress. Edwards will now continue to improve. Being a man of careful rules in living, the even tenor of his life will assert itself and support him in nature's ways. Carroll sends some medicine and tells Edwards how to take it.

Kailey, L( ) L. A.:
Pueblo, Colo(rado)
to Father E. D. (! Daniel E.) Hudson, (C.S.C.):
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Kailey thinks that when he explains the real status of "Mathematical Harmonies" Hudson will not think the Catholic World has any proprietary rights. It was first published in the "Democratic Review" in 1847. Judge (Alfred W.) A(rrington) rewrote it some years before his death. It was found among his papers; Kailey showed it to Father (John Joseph) Keane, (now Archbishop) who decided to republish it and sent it to the Catholic World. After its publication in the "World" Kailey was sent a "Chicago Times" containing an article from a spiritualist in Kansas claiming it for Andrew Jackson Davis. He learned Davis had incorporated it into a book called "Arabula". As the work of a convert to the Church it is especially adapted to the inquiring student.

Nash, Louis Charles:
Omaha, Neb(raska)
to James F. Edwards:
Notre Dame, (Indiana)
He sends the stamps which Edwards wanted. Mrs. Robinson is certainly a very charming woman, with an unlucky past. He supposes Edwards has been working like a goat for the college and receiving thanks for it, he doesn't think. Edwards has done enough for "The Honor and Glory of God" for one man.

Schwab, Gertrude de S.:
Atlantic City, N(ew) J(ersey)
to (James F.) Edwards:
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Even at this late date she wants to try to express her appreciation of his kindness to her while at Notre Dame. She is so proud of the little dish of Father Sorin's which Edwards gave her. She feels Edwards was giving up a great deal in parting with it. She is sorry that he cannot have the coveted picture of Father Gallitzin which Father Hudson gave her.

Egan, Maurice, Francis:
Washington, D. C.
to J(ames) F. Edwards:
Notre Dame, Indiana
He has heard lately of some very kind things Edwards has said of him. He must honestly say if he were as disinterested and as constant as Edwards in his love for the ideal, he should have less need of humility. Edwards has always believed that whatever mistakes Egan has made, he is neither malicious nor unforgiving.

Parker, W. Th(ornton):
Northampton, Mass(achusetts)
to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, (C.S.C.):
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
Hudson may remember that the Angelus and the Ave Maria warned him for referring to the man who had been in the Catholic Church fifteen years and talked of returning to Protestantism. Parker sends the man's letter. He is becoming antagonistic to the lies preached upon Protestants to keep them away from the Catholic fold.

(Rhodius), George:

to J(ames) F. Edwards:

The existence he is living there is enough to drive anybody insane. It is now five o'clock in the morning and he has not been able to close his eyes the entire night. He is awfully worried. This is absolutely no place for him.

Brownson, H(enry) F.:
Detroit, Mich(igan)
to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, (C.S.C.):
(Notre Dame, Indiana)
It would be likely to get Brownson into trouble with the booksellers to advertise the works at $45 and then charge $36. Brownson thinks that the editor of the Am(erican) Eccl(esiastical) Review makes a mistake in regard to proper names in the Bible. A friend wrote that Father Eugene (A.) Magevny, (S.J.), said Brownson's works should be in every priest's library, and yet the he found many who did not know where to get them.

George is going to Chicago. She does not know how long he will stay and when he will go to Notre Dame. Charley's father does not understand what those different charges are for. It is too bad Charles quit the French course; the books cost so much. If only George is not getting Charles to talk too freely!

Montgomery, G(eorge), Bishop of Monterey and Los Angeles:
Los Angeles, Cal(ifornia)
to (Henry F.) Brownson:
(Detroit, Michigan)
Bishop Montgomery sends Brownson a check to clear off Father (Patrick) Murphy's indebtedness knowing that he will return it sometime. Father Murphy is not dishonest but has a strange inconsistency in his nature. He will share his last dollar with a tramp but let a bill go unpaid. Repeated reminders to pay his bills go unheeded, though undoubtedly he has given away twenty times the amount of the bill since it was contracted. Bishop Montgomery is indebted both to Brownson and his distinguished father. A long time ago, he had urged Henry to write his father's biography. He probably does not remember it, but thanks him for editing his father's works. He could scarcely have done anything more valuable for the English speaking Catholic world and asks God to bless him for this work and to give him strength for future labors.
