Emery, Susan L., Dorchester, Massachusetts, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C., Notre Dame, Indiana, 1879 July 28
Scope and Contents
Miss Emery received the postal order for ten dollars. She knew that "Consolation" bore her name but she saw it after she made her request. She thanks Hudson for the catalog as she is interested in Our Lady's town. She hopes Hudson is feeling better, and thanks him for his offer of water of Lourdes as she would be glad to have it. She wishes more people would convert to the Catholic faith. She is reading Emily Sharcote's "Legends of the Blessed Sacrament" and read something she had hoped to see. It is in connection with the poem she sent "Subject in Hope". She gives some of the lines it contained. The remark is that the Greek word is composed of words meaning Jesus Christ, God the Son, Saviour. She will be glad if Hudson will make this correction as she does not know the Greek language. She has a liking for exact things. She is disappointed in regard to prepayment as it is hard to wait so long for the money. If Hudson retires from editorial work she will lose a kind friend, but she hopes she will not have to work much longer in this way. She asks Hudson if he ever read "The Devotions of Dame Gertrude More". She cannot find it and wants to read it. Dame Gertrude was a Benedictine nurse. She is returning the cents found in the registered letter. :: X-2-e A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
