Scope and Contents Mannix comments adversely on the books Hudson sent for her to review. Mannix thinks the installments of Miss Fisher's story are too short, while she does not care for "Palms". She is glad to hear that Thomas F. Galwey is having better luck in his literary work. Mrs. Galwey is there with her sister Mrs. Disney . Maurice Francis Egan should be shown the bad taste of his chats on books. Miss Margaret McCabe has agreed to Mannix's suggestion that they should pay fifty dollars for articles...

Scope and Contents Mannix does not think that Hudson ought to have sent her any money for those verses. A rich man in Cincinnati who has known her since she was born told her that if he could serve her in any way she should let him know. Her husband has said in various letters that if they had a home of their own they could get along nicely out there. Rents are exceedingly high. She wrote to this widely known philanthopist asking if he would lend her $2,500. The gentleman replied that he could not loan...

Scope and Contents Among the many things which Mannix admires about Hudson is his frankness.

She sends some French sketches which she has translated together with a Christmas story of Southern California. Her story "A Tale of Two Coasts" is taking shape.

Scope and Contents

Although her name is not on the list of poets in the new prospectus of the Ave Maria, perhaps Hudson would let her try her hand writing verses for children. John's reports are very good. Margaret will be 13 in January. :: X-3-k A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents

Mannix sends an article for the Ave Maria. :: X-3-k A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents Mannix sends the second installment of her story. Mannix thinks that she and Maurice Francis Egan could write a novel together. If he had not treated her so strangely whe might try to bring this about. T. F. Galwey and Mannix once tried to write a play together but Galwey's ideas were too strained and sentimental. She inquires if "Laurence Minot" is a genuine name. Mannix intends to send to Benziger Brothers for a photograph of Father Joseph Damien De Veuster; she has read that he was...

Scope and Contents

John Mannix writes that the rumor in Washington is that James G. Blaine will resign. People familiar with administrative affairs say he and the President do not work together. She has always thought that Benjamin Harrison was chosen by the Pepublican party as a puppet for Blaine. :: X-3-k A.L.S. 5pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents One needs to assert oneself as to religion and nationality here. Many are Catholics in name only and ashamed of being Irish.

Mannix sends another installment of her article "Jeanie Reilly". Madge Mannix is reading and enjoying "John Longworthy's Disappearance". :: X-3-k A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents Mannix has just thought of something for the beginning of May. She thinks it ought to go before the article she sent this morning. "A Tale of Two Coasts" is taking shape in her mind. A visiting priest applied with a letter from Bishop Francis Mora for permission to say Mass in San Diego. Someone who know him elsewhere saw him at the altar and told Father Anthony Uback he was a silenced priest. He denied the charge, but when Uback wrote to his former bishop, he learned the charge was...

Scope and Contents Maurice Francis Egan should write a novellette for Lippincott's. Although she considers herself ill treated by Egan, she appreciates his able talents and uncompromising Catholicity. Aubrey de Vere seems to be a poet of the intellect only. He must have taken it amiss that so far the prizes have been awarded over his head by the Magazine of Poetry. He did receive honorable mention. Mannix did not try for the prize, but she sent two "Rondeaux". Hudson is right, it is not much wonder that...

Mannix has the idea of sending him to a commerce college there and taking him into the office where he could do typewriting and earn something for himself. There is a...

When reading the Marian German poets of the Middle Ages in the Ave Maria Mannix missed much and thought Hudson may have omitted a portion. Then she found a portion in her portfolio, which she sends to Hudson. Mannix thinks she will be able to make a pretty good thing of the Golden Jubilee article. :: X-3-l A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents Mannix is sorry about the Golden Jubilee article, which she has sent to the Catholic World. Hudson must have forgotten what he wrote in reply to her question as to what space he could give her. The sisters wanted the article to appear in the Ave Maria, but when they heard Hudson could give them only four pages they requested Mannix to send them to the Catholic World. Mannix presumes that religious women are very unreasonable. There is nothing the matter with Mannix but anxiety as to the...
