Dorsey, Anna Hanson, Washington, District of Columbia, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C., Notre Dame, Indiana, 1882 January 13
Scope and Contents
Dorsey sends another chapter. She asks for a list of Catholic publishers in the West. Dorsey wants to send the Notre Dame library a government copy of the trail of Charles J. Guiteau as a reference for law students and as a curio of the nineteenth century. The trial is a disgrace and the law daily insulted. If the jury hangs Guiteau, it will be from a sense of justice, rather than from any enlightenment of counsel or court. There should be no doubt as to the punishment due the murderer of President James A. Garfield . Nellie Ella Lorraine Dorsey goes about armed with a pistol which she keeps under her bed at night. :: X-2-i A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
