Dunbar, Mrs. Catherine, Paris, France, to James F. Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana, 1886? June 2

She felt her departure keenly without seeing her loved ones' graves or having anything done for them. How could such cold ingratitude ever find its way there where they have been such tried and true friends of everyone in Notre Dame. The Colonel Robert Dunbar took care of Father M.B. Brown, C.S.C., Father General Edward Sorin, C.S.C . and Father Alexis Granger, C.S.C. with the solicitude of a father for no consideration. Only one thing could recompense him that is gratitude, this she was denied. They paid Father General all they could and more. She asks if there is much Christian religion in it. Why should she be obliged to find a chapel if she didn't see fit? Besides if a person wants one to do anything it should be done graciously. She has abandoned the idea of building altogether. If Father Sorin had invited Father S.P. Lalumiere kindly as he ought, he could have told him she did not forget him. Edwards was like a son to her. She will substitute him for her darling son. Edwards is the magnet that brought the people to Notre Dame, his kind heart and gentlemanly deportment. Sorin did not invite her to Notre Dame to see the graves of her husband and son; he can never make that injustice right. Oh to think of the ingratitude of Notre Dame. :: XI-1-d A.L.S. 7pp. 12mo.
