Richardson Muir, Marion, Morrison, Colorado, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C., Notre Dame, Indiana, 1884 January 27
Scope and Contents
Muir thanks Hudson for the "Life of Haydn" that he sent to her. Miss. Eleanor Donnelly, she feels, may have good intentions in her writings but Muir feels that she has gone amiss. She thinks that American Catholicity cannot grow into stabilization until we have priests who are "white men." By that she means they must be brought up in America, and not under foreign despotisms. Muir feels that the cross no longer holds the power that it once held. She thinks that it is the day of the Spirit that Christ himself foretold would come. She remarks that she is only saying what she thinks and that a mistake is possible. :: X-2-m A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
