Cox, G. T., Cambridge Port, Massachusetts, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, CSC, Notre Dame, Indiana, 1879 November 18
Scope and Contents
Because of illness he could not write and thank Hudson any sooner for printing the piece concerning St. Mary's Parochial School. Trouble has come between Father Thomas Scully and his parishoners and Cox would like to have a piece published to show the situation Father Scully is in, and who is in the right. Father Scully went through quite a struggle to build a Catholic school and then the parishoners would not send their children to it. Father Scully compelled them to send their children by refusing them the Sacraments until they did. The people took petitions to the Archbishop John Williams but he backed Father Scully to the end. In the end the parishioners will have to give in to him. :: X-2-e A.L.S. 5 pp. 8 vo.
