Scope and Contents

Walsh has received the "Sun" and "Scholastic." The Congress will not open until April 9, and Walsh is to go to Luxemburg with Father Augustin J. Louage, C.S.C. when it closes. Walsh will write Father Corby from Luxemburg about the house which there has been talk of establishing in this quarter. Louage thinks the grand-duchy would be an excellent recruiting ground for his province. But he says America must come to his aid with a German priest. The ocean voyage lasted only seven days and Walsh spent four or five days in London. In the British Museum, he got an autotype of the original articles of the Magna Charta and another of a deed made by Shakespeare. He intends to forward these two documents to Prof. Edwards for the library. Walsh attended Palm Sunday services at the pro-cathedral at Kensington, but Cardinal Manning was not there. All at Neuilly have been very cordial. Next Sunday there is to be a reunion of old students and they tell Walsh there will be forty or fifty boys of his time present. Msgr. Bernard? O'Reilly and Walsh are to represent the science of the U.S. O'Reilly sends his regards, as does his sister, Mrs. White. They are invited to dine with Msgr. Maurice d' Hulst, rector of the Catholic University of Paris. Father Zahm was wrong in stating that all the papers to be read were submitted months ago. Walsh must write about the Congress to Father John for the "Scholastic". There was an ordination here the other day. Among his callers has been the Marquisde ?illegible. He still looks "pretty crazy". He says America is the country for him and will return there when he completes his collegiate course in France. :: X-3-g A.L.S. 6pp. 12mo.
