Scope and Contents

He has received Corrigan's letter of Dec. 27 McQuaid proposes to go to New York next week, before Corrigan leaves for Rome. It is the best thing Corrigan can do. Corrigan will find Cardinal Mazzella a friend. He should try to get Msgr. Boccali on his side. Bishop Patrick Anthony Ludden was in Rochester. He seems that 40 or 50 parishioners have asked him to remove Father James L. Meagher. Ludden declined to interfere because Meagher would appeal to Rome and Ludden would be defeated. In no part of the world are Bishops treated as here. The Father Louis A. Lambert case was to be finally decided Dec. 16, so wrote Ella B. Edes. What will the world say when McQuaid publishes all the documents in the case, including the Tarutuffe letter, and Lambert's falsification of it in his report to the Propaganda? McQuaid avoided writing about Father Richard L. Burtsell, leaving Corrigan to his own judgement. McQuaid is delighted Corrigan has found a suitable spot for his new seminary. McQuaid is at a standstill about his. St. Andrew's is doing well this year. The Catholic University is lapsing into quiteness. There are nearly 100 atudents at Cornell University. One of the tutors is Catholic. He is at the head of a Catholic Union. At one time there was tendary among some professors toward rationalism, but this has changed of late. Henry Romeike sent McQuaid some presscuttings. Has Corrigan seen "le Pape de demain?" It will turn the head of Baltimore, only it is already on the Index. :: I-1-i A.L.S.
