Ignatia, Sister Mary, St. Mary's Notre Dame, Indiana, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C., Notre Dame, Indiana, 1880 May 19

 Item — Box: CHUD 2
Identifier: CHUD X-2-f

Scope and Contents

Enclosed is a paragraph notice. Sister gives thanks for the Librarian and the Academy for the two books. She had underrated Mrs. Dorsey's work. As Catholic teachers they should try to lift the pupils out of the mire of story reading, as it is like gossip. As earnest effort arising from a deep sense of the good would make it easy to change the standard for the young. Adults love trifling reading and they cannot impart to the pupils that which they do not believe themselves. It is a penance to read a long story and early habits have made it that way to Sister Ignatia. P.S. The 24th will be the anniversary of the baptism of her nephew at Notre Dame, Mr. W. J. Weld . He has not attended to his religious duties for over 4 years. Sister Ignatia asks Hudson to pray for him, and to remember the intention against mixed marriages. :: X-2-f A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
