Pizzini, Cecilia Plowden Hickey, Richmond, Va., to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1874 May 6
Scope and Contents
She extends her sympathy to McMaster on hearing of the death of Hugh Murray, stating that Catholicity has lost a friend. Since the first news of Murray was published in the Journal she has taken a deep interest in him. She thanks McMaster for his photograph and that of Murray. Her husband has been a subscriber of the Journal and her father for years admired his stand. Dr. Charles Macgill wishes to be remembered. Enclosed is a contribution for the Holy Father, one for the Banner for Our Lady of Lourdes and for the Sacred Heart Paray-le-Monial. She and her husband were unable to make the first pilgrimage but they hope to be with the next one. She is anxious to see the Pope and to extend to him her congratulations for his overcoming his enemies. She has been an invalid for the past five years but feels that if she could go to the Grotto of Lourdes she would be cured. She wishes to have hers and her husband's names handed in so that they might be included in the "Confraternity of the Immaculate Conception" and inquires if any one of the pilgrims will have charge of handing in the names. :: I-2-a A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
