Dorsey, Anna Hanson, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C ., Notre Dame, Indiana, 1879 August 20
Scope and Contents
Hudson's note was received on the eve before she left for Rehoboth Beach. Her book has been out since last May. She is surprised that a notice was not given the book in the Ave Maria and that a copy was not sent to Hudson by the publishers. She believes that the hostile feeling at Notre Dame prevented the notice being printed. Mother Angela Gillespie and Mrs. Dorsey will never again be friends. The book is well printed and well bound. The price is moderate. She would like to know about the story Hudson asked her to write from time to time. Sometimes he wants it soon and at other times he tells her to wait a while. She has promised Father Edward Sorin that she would again write for the Ave Maria. She is too old a writer to suit the fancy of the moment. If anything of here is wanted it must be a positive engagement arranged beforehand. Hudson should let her know if he wants a story or not. She cannot have one ready before January. People ask her why she does not go on writing for the Ave Maria. She hopes when Notre Dame opens on the first it will be a prosperous year. Hudson should write. :: X-2-e A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
