She is the only Catholic in a large family, and asks for Hudson's prayers for the conversion of her family. She wants to know if the expression on penance in her script is a mistaken one, and if it is, Hudson...

Scope and Contents Emery thanks Hudson for the two dollars he sent her. Among the stories in the Ave Maria, those of greatest interest to her are "Cyril's Vocation", and "The Life of Pere Lacordaire". The latter article has a special interest to her for it recalls memories of an essay she submitted to the Month in 1876 on a related subject but for which she never received any acknowledgement. She has since rewritten and included a few revisions in this essay. Feeling that it would refer to and complement...

She thanks Hudson for the note and the enclosure. If Hudson has occasion to send her a postal order again it would be more convenient for Emery if it would be made payable in Boston.

Scope and Contents She sends a poem very dear to her over which she has worked for some time. She asks Hudson if he knows of any case where the mother was placed in a room with her infant by persons who wished her to deny her Faith, but was not allowed to go to it unless she denied the Lord, thus watching the infant starve. She has heard of it in connection with Japanese Martyrdom in September of 1624. It was told by a Protestant and she wants the Catholic original. While Monica the mother was being...

Scope and Contents Miss Emery is sending this manuscript with a depression very unusual to her, as she usually seems cool to weigh her work but now she is troubled. She has not heard from Hudson. She is afraid her poem was not suitable for the Ave Maria. The opening article of the number received today delighted her as she likes anything that makes devotion to our Divine Queen. She shall be seen and known by all men as Our Lady, as one who does not have to make apologies. She hears nothing from "The...

She is sending a third number of "May Matters" from the "Cloister," these are for $2 each and she wishes she could say for nothing.

It has been a long time since she has heard from Hudson. She asks how Hudson is and how Notre Dame is arising from the ashes. :: X-2-e A.L.S. 1p. 8vo.

Scope and Contents Hudson's letter of the 15th received with the Scholastic. It seemed natural to be correcting again. She is afraid Hudson will not send any more after he sees how particular she is. She has learned more of Notre Dame since the fire. Hudson need not try to find out about the Japanese martyr as she has obtained some examples. She does not know whether to put her name to "Into Port" or not, but she prefers S.L. Emery. Hudson should omit her name. She would like to know if Hudson wants...

Scope and Contents She has just read a book by Madame Craven, which seems to be a new work. It has the imprint "Didier Cie, Paris, 1879". She does not know if it has been translated and wonders if there is any harm in her making use of it in the enclosed article. If suitable for the Ave Maria she believes it would be good to use it while it is still fresh to the people. She asks Hudson if people still give up their all and serve for prose as the ladies of Naples did? She has an idea for another article...

About the other letter: her friend has taken it thus leaving Emery without being too well acquainted with its contents. However, she states in...
