Scope and Contents She thanks Bayley for his kindness to Leo Thebaud and to herself. She has been quite sick, but is almost well now. Her little brother had inflammation of the lungs, and Papa and Maman were sick at the same time. Bayley's letter comforted Leo so much, but he is still homesick. Although he suffers a great deal, it will do him good. Her courage is down pretty low now. Father Titus Joslin came to see her twice while she was sick. She has a regular struggle with herself when she goes to ...

Scope and Contents They have concluded to send Leo Thebaud? to Emmitsburg until Bayley opens his college. It grieves Thebaud to send him so far away. He goes from her good and pure and God grant that he may return so. She cannot help thinking that it was Bayley who made him what he is. Look at her other brothers, how they have followed their religion. Leo is dearer to her than any. December 8 is approaching and she asks permission to renew her vow. Amedée makes her very unhappy and still persecutes her, ...

Scope and Contents Thebaud tells McMaster that his hint on the "Steam Engine" is "all right", since he knows the ways of "Crittens." He is sending McMaster the Walsh pamphlet and is happy to find him in the circle of the spunky little "Inventor". This man deserves credit from the public for his experiments in that line and his Coffer-dam is truly a "rival". His experiments and the construction of the machine have cost him $100,000. so far, but he has not received one cent in return. The engineers and dock...

Father Jouin will be in Providence August 5 to give the retreat to the Sisters of Mercy.

He is doubly sorry to learn the reason why the Bishop did not come on July 10, but he is sure that the Bishop's mother is with God. He has prayed for her. :: I-1-a A.L.S. 2pp. 16mo.

Scope and Contents As soon as he received McFarland's letter he carried it to Father Remigius J. Tellier, S.J., their superior, who asked him to write that it would be impossible for them to send another chaplain to the army. They have already given three besides Father O'Reilly who is going to France for a year. As to sending a priest to replace one of his priests it is more conformable to send a chaplain. But they have none to send. As to establishing a house of the Jesuits in McFarland's diocese the letter...

Scope and Contents Thebaud had to delay his answer because Father Michael Driscoll was on a mission in Pennsylvania. He is the only one available since the Jesuits are chaplains to the 37th, 69th, and Wilson's Zouaves. Driscoll has not been engaged for Jan. 7 and the beginning of February. He asks only that something definite be carved out for him. He is going to a mission in Hudson City and will be free after Christmas. If McFarland will say where, he would like to talk these matters over with him. Thebaud is...
