Scope and Contents

He sends $10 for the Pope and $1 for Michael Egan. He is surprised that the numerous Allocutions of the Pope are not published by more Catholic papers than the L'Univers. Pius IX is a great spectacle in his daily teachings. God upholds this miraculous octogenarian on the throne of Peter for a purpose. McMaster should translate and publish the Allocution of Feb. 18 and do the same with those of the future. In this manner, better than McMaster's own words could do, the Pope's own words will help to give the people and clergy the courage they all need in this struggle against revolution. He calls attention to the battles put up by Louis Verillot and his men. Catholic France is fighting as she never fought before and the sons of the Church are struggling on almost alone. Did McMaster read Veuillot's letter to Monsieur Barthelemy Saint Hilaire in the Feb. 28 issue of the L'Univers? He should read all of Veuillot's writings, and not lose sight of the grand example he gives to all the family. These remarks are private and not meant for publication. :: I-1-o A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
