Despite her illness she and her sister have been working feverishly in order to complete the copying of the manuscript soon. Though the story may appear to have a bellicose attitude Hudson will never know how hard she tried to avoid this and still follow the dictates of her conscience. Neither she nor her sister ever refer to Scriptural quotations in their writings unless they have first heard them being used by priests of unquestionned ability. Father Aegidious Hennemann has solved the problem of Palestrina's compositions for her. Both she and her sister object to the indiscriminant interchanging of Catholicism and its modern substitute catholicity. If their health permits and the weather is clement she and her sister will be in South Bend Saturday. Her mother received a letter from Miss Starr but they are all too busy to answer it. They will spend the winter in Kentucky. :: X-2-d A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
