Stanislaus sends Hudson a copy of the "Eagle" containing a notice of the appointment of Father P. F. O'Hara to St. Anthony's Parish, Brooklyn New York. O'Hara, Maurice Francis Egan, and M. V. Hickey inquired about Hudson's health. Stanislaus met Mr. Gill at Egan's; Gill is writing an article on Notre Dame for "Manhattan Magazine ", and he wishes illustrations which Father Thomas Walsh should send immediately. If Smith's views are not available, McDonald might be engaged to take photographs, or an artist from Van Gugen 's Chicago might be engaged to work up the fire scenes. Stanislaus saw Patrick O'Shea about the Ave Maria's three books he is publishing; he has printed but 250 copies of each to see how they will sell. He will pay ten percent royalty to Notre Dame. It would be well to put them on the Ave Maria list. O'Shea feels bad over the coldness with which he alleges he has been treated by Notre Dame. He was surprised when Brother Francis abruptly took "Our Lady of Lourdes" from O'Shea and gave it to the William Sadlier 's. That was after the burning of Father J. B. Champeau's, "Life of Christ", translated by Mother Angela, which was lost in the fire. The Sadliers were disposed to be sullen and pouty and Stanislaus saw them several times before getting an understanding about "Metropolitans", even now it is unsatisfactory. Mrs. William Sadlier is fickle and vague. The old man, Agnes's father is sickly and can't settle down to business. Hickey would like to send his brother-in-law to Notre Dame for a few weeks to get an idea of press work and the management and care of presses. :: X-2-n A.L.S. 6pp. 12mo. 13
