Scope and Contents She felt her departure keenly without seeing her loved ones' graves or having anything done for them.

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...

Duncan sends $405 the full amount due. According to receipts filed in Court, Lesne was paid...

Scope and Contents The public prints will have informed Blanc of the heavy calamity to the Asylum for the Relief of the Destitute Orphan Boys.

The Directors are compelled to submit their wants to the sympathies of the public. They have been appointed as a committee that is to present this subject to all the churches in the city and request that Blanc submit the same to the...

Scope and Contents They have reluctantly become the publishers of the Catholic Almanac. The sudden steppage of the Metropolitan Almanac of Baltimore would have left Catholics without this work did they not undertake it.
