Scope and Contents

With God's fatherly providence aided by the love of many people the University of Notre Dame will be restored. He is sending a small mite toward the rebuilding of the school. Many times it is a lesson to see the work of a lifetime destroyed in a few hours. He mentions an incident that he heard when he was at Le Mans with Father Basil Moreau of the hard time the Holy Cross had in starting when at one time all alms ceased and everyone for days went hungry. Even though they sat at the table without a slice of bread and said grace and thanksgiving, they still went hungry and had no answer to their prayers, and then one night while at prayer supplies came from a benefactor. It is the same with the present trial of the University. :: X-2-e A.L.S. 6pp. 16mo.
