Scope and Contents

Muir presumes Hudson has heard what makes him dislike to write to her from a person whom she despises. It is impossible to marry in the Church; if a Catholic is moral he thinks himself too good for anybody. In Christian Reid Hudson has secured a prize. Muir, if she marries, will have to live near a Mormon settlement, where the most hostile feeling exists between the white and the foreign element. Joseph A. Lyons ' Annual is very good. :: X-2-o A.L.S. 4pp. 16mo.

Scope and Contents Muir is surprised that anyone spoke ill of her. Professor Arthur Stace is in complete error in affirming that Muir printed private letters. She explains her anger as hereditary madness, admitting that she is not much of a Christian. Unlike a Catholic girl, Muir found it impossible to avoid the confidences of the wretched and poor. The problem of Catholic marriage is that women are sold and deceived into the power of brutal men, who spend the nights at the Palace theater and Sunday...

Scope and Contents

Richardson thanks Hudson for the Ave Maria and the kind interest. The Salt Lake Tribune has protested vigorously and Muir believes that a priest instead of a minister should have put on the commission studying the Indian problem, it would have made sense. Richardson believes it better to put Indians where whites are strong than in a lonely place, if they are under proper management. :: X-3-j A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.

Scope and Contents

Richardson has an inside view of the Mormon question. A handful of settlers have done what the United States government has not done; kept down polygamy. They can do so no more unless the Federal Government ceases to favor Mormonism. The present head of the Mormon Church is Lorenzo Snow. Polygamy, Richardson wrote to the State Department, embodies every crime against the home and motherhood. The President must realize quickly that something must be done. :: X-3-k A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.

Scope and Contents Muir expresses regret over the bitter way that she spoke to Hudson recently. If all Catholics were like Notre Dame people then her opinions would undoubtedly be different. Muir says that in her youth the superstitions of the Church cut her off from marriage. Its counsels were ruled by men without feeling for women. She speaks of her disappointing love affair. Her Catholic friends helped her in time of need. Muir thinks very highly of Notre Dame men. They are king and thoughtful even...

Scope and Contents Muir thanks Hudson for the "Life of Haydn" that he sent to her. Miss. Eleanor Donnelly, she feels, may have good intentions in her writings but Muir feels that she has gone amiss. She thinks that American Catholicity cannot grow into stabilization until we have priests who are "white men." By that she means they must be brought up in America, and not under foreign despotisms. Muir feels that the cross no longer holds the power that it once held. She thinks that it is the day of the...
