Audran, Father Enest, Jeffersonville, Indiana, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1870 December 8
Scope and Contents
Father Audran rejoices that McMaster has started a new subscription for the Pope, now that the Pope is practically a prisoner. He feels that whatever may be the embarrassments of clergy and faithful in the United States, none of them can overlook the necessity of doing all they can to succor the Pope in his trials. Steam ships have made the Vatican much nearer than formerly. Letter torn off at bottom Audran points out the wonderful example of true faith that Canadians have given, and he feels that the respect they have won by their noble confession of faith can be duplicated in the United States only when true respect for the Vicar of Christ and a devoted filial love for him become essential characteristics of the faithful. Audran sends $10 regretting that it cannot be more. :: I-1-n A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
