Dorsey is grateful to Maurice Francis Egan for writing the sketch "The Tenant of Gable End", but she is disturbed about the inaccuracies in the article. She has always written while under stress and feels she has missed her aim. Her best works, she feels, have been done for the Ave Maria. Except for one story, "Father Clement" by Father Charles Pise, S.J., Dorsey's stories were the first Catholic stories by an American writer. She was windowed in 1861, when her daughter, Nellie Ella Lorraine Dorsey, was five and not at an earlier age. It was "May Brooke" and not "Sister of Charity" which was issued in Edinburgh, Scotland. Another mistake is that her serials which appeared in the Ave Maria are alluded to as having appeared in book form, this is incorrect. The dragging in of Mrs. Burnell and Mrs. Southworth was unnecessary. She thanks Hudson for the photograph of Bishop John L. Spalding . Bishop John Joseph Keane said of him, "in literature and eloquence Bishop Spalding stands at the head of the American Hierarchy". :: X-3-a A.L.S. 6pp. 8vo.
