Scope and Contents

She is grateful for the consolation that McMaster's writing give her. She wishes to thank him for herself and for the many thousands of Catholics who are appreciative of McMaster's brave spirit. She is thankful that McMaster supports their courage in this period of chastisement and knows that God will allow it to be turned to His greater glory. She agrees with McMaster that the letters of Miss Ella B. Edes are the best they have and should be preserved for posterity. Reading the accounts in the Journal of expressions of faith and loyalty in the distant points of the country, Lockport, N. Y. and Nashville, Tenn., She is happy that the Catholics in this country and in Europe are waiting only for the authoritave signal to write their words in noble deeds. P.S. She was tempted to add her contribution to the Holy Father to McMaster's list, but thought it unfair to the good Jesuits who are doing all they can in the same cause in Cincinnati. :: I-1-o A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
