Scope and Contents Hudson cannot understand why his refusal of Mr. B. Durward 's article should excite Starr. It is the right of the editor to decline what he might consider unavailable to his columns. Hudson rejected her ballad because he felt it was too long to appear in the Ave Maria. He resents Starr's contesting his rights as to what should appear in the Ave Maria and he believes he was courteous in explaining his reasons for rejecting the poem. Charles Warren Stoddard and others, who know Hudson's...

Scope and Contents The enclosed clipping from the Liverpool Catholic Times requires explanation. The enclosed clipping from the London Tablet describes Walsh's eloquence as superb. Father Stanislaus Fitte is in a sea of trouble with no friendly shore in sight. Father Andrew Morrissey is doing the preaching this month at Notre Dame and St. Mary's, to the others' deep chagrin. Morrissey was so disappointed, it is said that on Monday night, he tried all the churches in town for a call. They say, Morrissey...

Brownson will see Hudson never lets a good thing go to waste; he is asked to correct and return. He asks Brownson to furnish a three page article for the Ave Maria on Columbus' devotion to the Blessed Virgin, which he would run towards the end of next month. :: III-3-d A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.

Scope and Contents

Brownson's manuscript is at hand, prompt and welcome. That statement has been repeated many times but Hudson cannot say by whom it was originally made—shocking figures truly, but he does not question their correctness. He hopes to send proofs of Brownson's article. P.S.: He may see him at Christmas. :: III-3-d A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.

Scope and Contents

Hudson encloses proofs of Brownson's article, in which he will notice a change in the first sentence made in order to work in the initial, since Hudson has no fair 'I'. He hopes to be in Detroit Friday and asks Brownson to return the proofs as soon as it is convenient. :: III-3-d A.L.S. 1p. 32mo.

Scope and Contents Father Hudson regrets the delay in sending the photographs and asks Brownson to wait until James F. Edwards returns in two weeks. He sends a copy of the Ave Maria containing the sketch of Orestes A. Brownson, which Brownson may change or amplify as he thinks best; when he returns the copy, he should send an advertisement of Brownson's works for the Ave Maria. He asks Henry to thank his brother Orestes A. Brownson Jr. for his letter, and he will be glad to hear his opinion of the books he...

Scope and Contents

Father Hudson's letter of last week with the sketch for the Ave Maria apparently have gone astray. It is very hot at Notre Dame. Brother will sent the advertising rates for the Ave Maria. :: III-3-b A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents

Father Hudson sends the proof for the Ave Maria advertisement of Brownson's works for Brownson to make any change he wishes. It is very cool at Notre Dame. There is no hurry about the sketch, which will have to be enlarged to be of pamphlet size. :: III-3-b A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents Father Hudson asks Brownson's excuse for the delay: he has had neuralgia and much work on the Ave Maria. An extension to the Church is being built and Father General Edward Sorin is anxious to get the roof on. Father Hudson asks Brownson for the proofs of the Marian article to accompany the sketch and hopes he likes the Ave Maria advertisement. He asks whether volume 19 is the last volume of the Works. He remembers hearing the Father General onceallude to the Doctorate of Philosophy: "bosh...

Scope and Contents Father Hudson sends thanks for Brownson's letter and enclosure and encloses the proof of the Ave Maria article; the advertisement he thinks if just right. Edwards would have had the job done in Chicago if he had anticipated such delay for there is only the one good photographer in South Bend, Father Thomas Walsh was very grateful for the large photograph, and Hudson would be very happy to have one for himself and for the Father General Edward Sorin who is anxious to have the remains Of...

Scope and Contents

Father Hudson thanks Brownson for his favor of the 31st. He intends to insert the advertisement now and again whenever there is room. The edition of the Ave Maria is now 18,000 copies. He would be very glad to have a copy of the index to Brownson Works. :: III-3-b A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.

Scope and Contents

Father Hudson thinks four or five pages long enough for the article, but if longer, it should run to eight or ten pages, so it could be cut. He urges Brownson not to forget about the article on the Blessed Virgin. :: III-3-b A.L.S. 1p. 12mo.

Scope and Contents

Father Hudson would like to have an article on Dr.Orestes A. Brownson 's devotion to the Blessed Virgin for the first Ave Maria of the new year. He hopes Brownson is well and that he will pay Notre Dame a visit. :: III-3-b A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.

Scope and Contents

Scope and Contents Father Hudson is glad to hear that Brownson has brought out some separate volumes of Brownson's Works and has announced the fact to purchasers of premium books. Volume 19 should be very popular as a gift book for higher students in Catholic schools. Father Thomas E. Walsh will be back on Saturday. They will be glad to see Brownson at Notre Dame next month and he must try to prevail on Father Ernest Van Dyke, Mrs. Brownson, and the household. P. S.: He has given one of the circulars to Father...

Scope and Contents

Father Hudson is glad to know that the work pleased Brownson and that he is translating it. He is welcome to the book as long as he has use for it. Father Hudson will try to visit Detroit before long to talk about Brownson's undertaking; and he has a plan for publication. He wishes to be remembered to Father Ernest Van Dyke; Philip is happy and getting on well. Regards to Brownson and the household. :: III-3-b A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents Father Hudson wishes Brownson and his household and all his friends in Detroit a happy new year. He intended to suggest that the appearance of Brownson's translation of Tarducci be delayed for the celebration in '92, that the book be published in the autumn of '91, and that meantime portions of the translation be given in the Ave Maria. His general health is fairly good, but his sight is failing. He was disappointed at not being able to go to Detroit at Christmas. :: III-3-c A.L.S. 2pp....

Scope and Contents

Hudson incloses the proofs of their notice of the third volume. Brownson is to be congratulated; Hudson used to fear that the work would not be completed. Bishop John Lancaster Spalding asked Hudson to order a copy of the life for him. Hudson sends best regards. :: III-3-c A.L.S. 32mo. 2pp.

Scope and Contents

Hudson is keeping Brownson's interesting sketch for Lent. Brownson's name will secure more readers, he is sure. Perhaps Brownson will be willing to sign it when he sees the proofs. Brownson was remembered in Hudson's Christmas Masses which he always reserves for his own intentions. One Mass was for the dead; he thought of Philip Brownson? :: III-3-c A.L.S. 2pp. 32mo.

Scope and Contents Father Hudson is also of the opinion that Brownson's translation of Tarducci had better be entrusted to one of the leading Protestant publishers. No doubt there would be an objection to Father Hudson's first plan, but he suggests that Brownson give the Ave Maria one or more original articles using the Italian work as a source of information only—Columbus' devotion to the Blessed Virgin, an account of his chains, his inner spirit, his mission, etc. The work would be altogether too voluminous...

Judge Edmund F. Dunne is not to be thought of in connection with the Congress. He is impossible. Father Hudson has taken time to make inquiries. However, the address is San Antonio, Fla. He would like some information about the Congress, and he will not forget about Columbus. :: III-3-c A.Card S. 1p.

Scope and Contents

By impossible, Father Hudson meant not to be thought of, i. e., undesirable. Reputation of Judge Edmund F. Dunne not the best. Ask John Moore, Bishop of St. Augustine, Florida. :: III-3-c Autographed card Signed 1p.

Scope and Contents

Brownson's Congress paper is welcomely received. It will appear in the Ave Maria of the 16th, which, however, will be mailed on the 12th. His manuscript is very good. Father Hudson gives him his best thanks for this favor to the Ave Maria. At least he will be among the first to publish Brownson's excellent and timely essay. His pious intention is noted. Possibly Hudson may see him in Washington next week. :: III-3-d A.L.S. 2pp. 32mo.

Scope and Contents Hudson rejoices to hear that the Life is ready. It will be valuable and timely and he congratulates Brownson. Father Thomas E. Walsh tells him he engaged a man to photograph the Columbus pictures only a week or so ago but cannot say when the work is to be done. Hudson will announce the book in the Ave Maria soon. He asks what of the contribution Brownson was to make and whether he could furnish something of the work. Hudson had hoped to be in Detroit tomorrow and Sunday to talk over the...

Scope and Contents Hudson thanks Brownson for his letter of the 29th and hopes he will let his name appear with the book, for it will need just that support and prestige. The pamphlet is anxiously expected. If Brownson is to furnish the Ave Maria with anything from Tarducci's work, it should appear before the book comes out. The series of articles will be reserved for the year of the celebration. He asks if Tarducci's work had a portrait of Columbus. He hopes to see Brownson during the summer if he can arrange...

Scope and Contents Hudson wishes Brownson would send him another copy of his pamphlet. His has disappeared, and he has been very busy. Bishop John L. Spaulding had a room near his and he felt obliged to attend to his needs a little; and it is very hot. Possibly Luigi Gregori did copy the portrait in the first volume of Tarducci's work. Hudson asks when the book will be published and would like to have some advance sheets in the meantime—the most interesting chapters—which might be called "Scenes or Leaves from...
