Howe, Frances R., Homestead, Chesterton, Indiana, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C., Notre Dame, Indiana, 1877 September 10

 Item — Box: CHUD 1
Identifier: CHUD X-2-d

Scope and Contents

She received Hudson's letter. Hudson's kind offer of assistance will probably be used although she definitely does not like the subscription method of raising money. She is sorry that she omitted Father Frederick Faber's priestly title in her list of authors. She does not like the way the word catholicity has usurped the meaning of the word Catholicism. She is fully aware of the fact that many literary critics consider the writings of her and her sister frivolous but she defends her position by citing several ways in which the easy cheerful style of writing is much more effective than the serious conventional type of prose. :: X-2-d A.L.S. 8p. 12mo.
