Scope and Contents Miss Emery is disappointed as she has received nothing for her "Into Port". She wonders if Hudson's letter could have been lost. She does not like to take anything from the Ave Maria with all the trouble at Notre Dame, but for the last two years she has earned so very little. When the "Catholic Record" was in existence Mr. Hardy and Mr. Mahoney used to pay her at a fixed rate per article and not per page and she wonders if Hudson would be willing to do the same. She is writing this...

Scope and Contents Miss Churchill has gone and given Miss Emery her manuscript to finish as she had not completely copied it, and Miss Emery will share in the profits.

Scope and Contents Philadelphia has been excited over the visit of Grand Duke Alexis. The Duke is interesting on the ground of being a novelty, is quite attractive.

Very many tried to be presented to him. Gen. Gorloff believes Russian an easy language to acquire and proved it with an illustration. He is surprised that a...

Scope and Contents Henry's letter found Mr. Emory in the midst of a most dangerous attack of pleurisy, and was among the agreeable incidents of the sick room. When Mr. Emory is strong enough he will write Henry. Nearly a year ago he sent Henry a long letter describing their plains life, and some months later it was returned to him from the dead letter office. Emory heard Henry was at Leavenworth and addressed it there—so Henry cannot have the credit of having written the first letter. She wishes they were as...

Bishops in the United States where there is no Cathedral...

Scope and Contents It is absolutely necessary to have a church for a permanent establishment among the Indians, but particularly for the glory of God. There are Presbyterians there who cause them much trouble. If they had a suitable church the Superior of Father Quiontet Father Francis Cointet, C.S.C. could come and give them a good sermon. This would soon make the others see their error or at least attract the Catholics. He has the idea, if the Bishop will permit, to take up a small collection at Detroit. If...
