Steiner has heard that the "Pilgrimage Committee" has offered to include some "pious ladies". These "pious ladies" are a nuisance and ought to stay at home and the "Pilgrimage Committee" should have continued with its original plan. The idea of a Pilgrimage from America with "pious ladies" is something original, and Steiner is surprised James Alphonsus McMaster did not see or mention the impropriety. If the "pious ladies" want to make a pilgrimage, they should make one of their own, accompanied by a few religious sub-prioresses, or else they should form a separate party on a separate steamer. Steiner asks Bishop Dwenger's opinion on this matter.-In the James Alphonsus McMaster papers. :: I-2-a A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
