Identifier: CMMA I-2-a

Scope and Contents

Since the students of Fldkirch College are not allowed to receive any newspapers, he asks that the Journal be sent to his address rather than to that of his son's. He leaves here early in October to spend the winter in Brussels so he wishes it to be sent to him there, in care of the American counsul. Although she is happy in that Catholic country, she still takes an interest in the affairs at home and especially those of her religion. She comment's upon the Feast of the Blessed Virgin's Nativity and the humble adoration of the populace. She frequently encounters German and Swiss Protestants and if she should talk thus on Prussian soil she would be jailed, for their conversation leads to opinions on religious liberty. She said if such laws were made in her country she would resist them and arm her sons for that purpose. She asks for his prayers and gives her regards to her friends. :: I-2-a A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
