Anson, Geo(rge) M.: Merrill, Wis(consin)
to (James F. Edwards: Notre Dame, Indiana)

Edwards spoke of a young lady. That is a weak point in his make-up. He will be delighted to meet her, but is sorry thinking he will prove to be a disappointment, but if Miss Foley will shut her eyes he may win her. He invites Edwards to spend a few days in Merrill. They had a sangerfest and after the natives finished the beer drinking siege, they went back to their normal condition—dead.

Doyle, W(illia)m T.: Milwaukee, (Wisconsin)
to (Henry F. Brownson: Detroit, Michigan)

Doyle thanks Brownson for his letter of the 17th but has been too busy to look up the articles about Leo Taxil in which it was insinuated, if not openly asserted, that Pike was an invention of Taxil's. The Popular Science Monthly for March and April, 1900, and the article in Lippincott's Magazine for Dec., 1900, by Henry Chas. Lea gave the impression that Taxil's confederate, Dr. Bataville (Dr. Karl Hack), was responsible for Pike's book. Father Oberle mentioned that he had looked into Pike's book and had he been home, Doyle would have looked up Brownson's pamphlet on the matter. Since Father (Joseph J.) Oberle had not seen the pamphlet, he loaned his copy to him. Did Brownson see the article on (Lord) Acton in the Nation? He is sending the last number of the Tablet and a slip from the day's Chronicle. (No enclosures)

S(toddard), C(harles) W(arren): North Adams, Mass(achusetts)
to (Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

A few more years and the Varsity would have killed Stoddard. ( ) Lummis wants Stoddard to go and live with him. That would mean regular work on the magazine. He must be free. Fred Harriott has the novel in hand. Stoddard may go back to Tuckernuck with Bay Lodge. He dreads the thought of returning to Washington at all.

Fitte, C.S.C., Father S(tanislaus) F.: Canton, O(hio)
to James F. Edwards:

He went with two friends to Buffalo and Toronto, but it was so cold on the lakes that he caught a cold. He is there perfectly at home with a most pleasing host. He wrote to Mr. and Mrs. Paradis this morning. And so the Archbishop of Chicago (Feehan) is dead. Bishop (John L.) Spalding heads the list of his successors. Then Bishop (Peter J.) Muldoon will replace Spalding.

Morrissey, (C.S.C.), Father A(ndrew): Notre Dame, Ind(iana)
to James F. Edwards:

He is glad to learn that the baths at Mr. Clemens did Edwards some good. Also that Edwards is going to Europe. The sea voyage will benefit him much. It will make no difference if Edwards is a few weeks late for school. They will look after his classes.

Kiefer, Herbert: Louisville, K(entudk)y
to (James F.) Edwards:

He has been too lazy for anything. He met a young lady from Hopkinsville who is just about all right. About the first of the month he will go to Terre Haute to look for quarters.

Bellord, Bishop James: London, (England)
to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, (C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

The catechism is likely to be a success in America. Bellord feels sure that a change of catechism will make a great improvement. He is trying to promote the organization of priests for the purpose of reading papers and discussing professional topics. There should be such a thing as a corporate expression of the opinions of the clergy. A third necessity is the extension of non-Catholic missions.

to (Henry F. Brownson): (Detroit, Michigan)

Father Fahle orders a number of books to be sent to Rev. Amando Bahlmann, O.F.M., Convent of St. Francis, Bahia, Brazil, and encloses a check for $4.65 to cover charges.

Schwab, Gertrude: Loretto, P(ennsylvani)a
to (James F.) Edwards:

The last they heard was that the boys were in Berlin. She cannot tell where they will be but gives directions for letters. She trusts Edwards will meet them while he is in Europe.

Fitte, C.S.C. Father S(tanislaus) F.: Canton, O(hio)
to James F. Edwards:

He had kind of presentiment with regard to Edwards' going to France. Next winter they will take pleasure in talking, not shop or football or scandal, but painting in Edwards' cozy room. He hopes that Edwards will not become too French. It is bad that Mr. and Mrs. (Jobson Emilien) Paradis will no longer be inmates of the Lilacs, else they would be amazed at Edwards' proficiency in French. Spalding is first on the list for Chicago, Muldoon second, and Quigley of Buffalo, third. Fitte is afraid that the too royal hospitality lavished upon him in Canton will spoil him for the ordinary diet of community life.

Dutton, (Ira B.), Joseph: Kalawao, (Hawaiian Islands)
to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, (C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Dutton cannot help thinking that (Charles Warren) Stoddard's writings have never been very successful. To see a new edition of "South Sea idylls" praised by W(illiam) D(ean) Howells was a little too much. Dutton is not the only one who passed under a chill in reading it. Father (Francis X.) Dutton is Chancellor in Cincinnati now. For a while new officials caused some confusion, but nothing serious. The new board of health seems quite friendly. Concerning Father Wendelin Moellers, (SS.CC.), of Kalaupapa the board is not reconciled. Dutton is well-informed that the board has some strong points against him. His repute for getting into difficulty is well known. Dutton's private opinion is that after a while he will go elsewhere. Leprosy there is decreasing. Adele Ware of San Jose, California, is getting his notes on Damien in shape. She will try to make copies for Hudson, Sister Ignatius of Louvain and Sister Mary Pius, one of the oldest Dominicans in Tennessee. Aug. 13: it seems Moellers will go. Father Maxim may come.

Culliny, P(atrick) M.: New York, N(ew) Y(ork)
to (James F. Edwards): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Culliny requests Edwards to see the Reverend Mother at St. Mary's Academy. Mr. Baillargeon has two sons at the University and three daughters he will send to an Eastern Academy. Culliny advised him to send the daughters to St. Mary's. Baillargeon received a catalogue from St. Mary's and considers the rates too high. Culliny told him, that through Edwards's influence special rates could be arranged. Culliny sends his regards to Father (Andrew) Morrissey.

to (James F. Edwards: Notre Dame, Indiana)

Edwards' letter announcing his expected arrival on this side of the water was received with general exclamations of joy and delight. He must leave for Paris and proposes that Edwards so from Cherbourg to Paris; the following Saturday they will go to Houlgate to see Estelle.

Tiernan, F(rances) C(hristine): Salisbury, N(orth) C(arolina)
to Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, (C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Hudson's letter and check reached Tiernan yesterday. She is glad that Hudson is going to take a vacation. They cannot afford to lose their one able Catholic editor an hour before God's time.

S(toddard), C(harles) W(arren): North Adams, Mass(achusetts)
to (Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C.): (Notre Dame, Indiana)

Last evening Stoddard was at the home of a former classmate of Hudson, Father (Charles E.) Burke of St. Francis Church, N(orth) Adams. Stoddard is going to Lebanon where the Shakers are. He wonders if Hudson's gentle friend is there. Next Wednesday he meets Bay Lodge is Boston. He is impatient to be in Tuckernuck. Stoddard can hear nothing about Hudson's childhood friend, Master "Fatty". There are too many people at Nahant including Teddy (Theodore Roosevelt). He'd crowd a grain elevator if he were all by his lonesome.

Doyle, W(illia)m T.: Milwaukee, (Wisconsin)
to (Henry F. Brownson): (Detroit, Michigan)

Doyle thanks Brownson for his favor of the 13th. He and Father Oberle had hoped to see him on the annual excursion, but they did not take it. The Nation which he sent contains an article on Lord Acton and also a copy of the Independent of Aug. 21 in which certain passages are marked. He presumes Brownson has read the recent utterances of Archbishop (John) Ireland in his speech to the public school teachers. A passage from the Nation quoting Archbishop Ireland on the subject on missionary work in the Philippines is given by Doyle. In ordering Bishop Bellford's Catechism from Father (Daniel E.) Hudson, Doyle calls his attention to the ending of the "Gloria Patri" and is awaiting his reply in the columns of the Ave Maria. He asks Brownson's opinion of the Federation of Catholic Societies. The Catholic Citizen agrees with Archbishop Ireland's view that it is useless.

to H(enry) F. Brownson: (Detroit, Michigan)

Father McGuire asks if it is possible to obtain the first two volumes of the Works without buying the set. He orders also the "Refutation of Atheism" in pamphlet form. As an admirer of Orestes Brownson he hopes for a favorable reply.

Seton, Msgr. Rob(er)t: Rome, Italy
to (James F.) Edwards: Notre Dame, Indiana)

He hopes to find a letter from Edwards when he returns to Rome at the end of October. He has written in his diary just as he thought and there are serious reflexions throughout. He went by slow stages to Comolake and the town. The Bishop is of an old noble family. There is another such family at the villa in which the names of Ireland, Spalding, O'Connell, Zahm, and other Americans are household words. The educated Italians of Peidmont and Lombardy are more liberal minded and progressive than those of the south. He has heard that most of the Belgian clergy are ignorant and fanatical. Now that he is settled in Rome, he hopes to begin a new life. He had very few friends who seemed to know that for a man of his bringing up and varied attainments, he was incongrously placed in Jersey City. He has wasted more than thirty-five years of his life. He has some devotion to St. Augustine and has been many places where he lived. He sends compliments to Father (Daniel) Hudson, C.S.C.

Fitte, C.S.C., S(tanislaus) F.: Notre Dame, (Indiana)
to James F. Edwards: (Paris, France)

He received both letter and postal sent by Edwards. He spent the 18th in the "Windy city" with Mr. Mason. There is no decision yet as to the future Archbishop, but wrangling about Bishop (John Lancaster) Spalding and (Peter) Muldoon. The third man Bishop (James Edward) Quigley of Buffalo may be selected. According to all Msgr. (John) Farley will succeed Archbishop (Michael A.) Corrigan. They had a splendid banquet at Father Tim(othy D. O'Sullivan's). He waited until the 23 rd for Father (Andrew) Morrissey (C.S.C.) who spent the night at Bishop Muldoon's house. (Father Timothy) O'Sullivan and he had a grand day in the country. After an absence of a month and a half, he reached Notre Dame. He was asked by the provincial to preach a retreat to the brothers of St. Joseph's Farm. There are great prospects for the next year and most likely a greater number of students than last year. Tom Sherman Steele is going to be with them, and a friend of Mr. Cooney. The O'Malley course will be divided between Fathers (John W.) Cavanaugh, (Thomas Crumley and (William) McNamee. (All C.S.C.) Father (Michael M.) Oswald (C.S.C.) will teach Greek. Father (John B.) Scheier (C.S.C.) is visiting in Washington D.C.: Sr. Eugenie in New York; Mother Praxedes and Sr. Aloysius went to St. Anne de Beaupre, Canada. (Charles) Peterson is just moving to the lilacs, and (Alphaeus) Reynolds and wife are replacing Peterson.

Reidy, Father (William P.): Hartford, Conn(ecticut)
to H(enry) F. Brownson: (Detroit, Michigan)

Father Reidy has desired for a long time to possess a complete set of Brownson's Works. Unable to pay the full sum of $45.00 at once, he asks if it is possible for him to buy the works on monthly payments of $5.00 per month until the total is paid. If the set is sent it can be withdrawn at any time if Henry should decide to do so.
