Scope and Contents She asks McMaster to hand the enclosed note to his book-keeper, who will reply to it. She thinks that she has been forgetful of her duties as a business woman this winter. She is feeling better than she has done for years, although she is still very thin, for Dr. Walsh, the brother of Maurice Francis Egan's friend, Henry C. Walsh, discovered wherein her physical peccancy lay and provided remedies. The children moved to St. Michel Thursday, and she joins them there Tuesday. They were...

Scope and Contents She has read in the Ave Maria how the Benedictine brothers of St. Meinrad, Ind. have sacrificed themselves for the sake of our red men of the west, and to encourage the whites to settle upon the vacant lands. The rich land is deserving more attention from our priests than it receives. The protestants come, but the Catholics pass it by. People would rejoice if some of those fathers would come among their midst. Their country is not Catholic and wonders why not make it so. The people are...

Scope and Contents Cassidy wonders why McMaster does not come to visit them, for she did not reply to McMaster's letter because he expected to see McMaster and verbally answer his questions. McMaster can say what he wishes about the payment of the legacies, but the transfer of the remains had better be kept out of the papers, as it was in Philadelphia, partly through the influence of Mr. George W. Childs. There were rumors of an attempt on the grave at Saint Mary's, and the transfer was hurried. Mr....

Scope and Contents Cassidy wishes McMaster and his family a happy New Year. She will attend to her own and Miss Drexel's business matters with the 'Freeman' by a Post Office Money Order from Camden for six dollars. They are all well. McMaster has probably heard of the recent death in the other branch of the family. She thanks McMaster for his article on the matter they discussed when McMaster was at St. Michel. She may have to write McMaster on that matter, but McMaster has probably less time to read a...

Scope and Contents Fenwick as bishop of Cincinnati and Comissarius Generalis of the Dominicans in the Province of St. Joseph begs the Holy Father for the faculty of dispensing the Fathers from the obligation of wearing their habits outside their convents and of wearing the black soutane of the secular priests even in sacred functions. This external uniformity is desirable not only to prevent derision but also because of poverty, since the Dominican habit is of costly material and so easily soiled. In the...
