Scope and Contents
He explains his delay in answering by the number of visitors they had to entertain. For a week they had Father Secchi, S.J. who took them on trips. Another was Bishop Hughes of Gibraltar who told them of his own persecutions. Prof. Scholz of Bonn, member of the Noble College, the Prince brother of the King of Naples, Monsignor Brunelli also came. One day the Holy Father Himself came for half a day, along with many who came to see him, such as the General of the Jesuits. He described other events of the vacation, trips to Tivoli, Subiaco.
