Scope and Contents Hubert gave Mr. Hynes the document Blanc sent for him. Hynes may visit Blanc during the legislature's recess. Blanc has probably received the paper Hubert sent concerning the thief who introduces himself to priests by false letters, and takes their money. Hubert repeats his request concerning prayers from the pulpit. He will soon be asked to perform a mixed marriage, and asks for the dispensation. Blanc may soon receive a visit from Miss Murphy, sister of the man who started a lawsuit...

Scope and Contents Two weeks ago they began work again on the church, so few services will be held there in Lent. It would be almost impossible to have Confirmation soon after Easter. Hubert has asked Father Patrick Shiel C.S.C. to speak to Blanc about the bill. Mr. Hynes has given Hubert some hope. Father D. McCarthy, C.M ., heard that Mr. St. Paul was attending to this matter, but St. Paul might be the last man to whom to turn this over. Hubert is sure he could straighten it out if he had the documents and...

Hubert requests dispensations for W.A. Jones, a Methodist, and Eugenia Kauffman, a Catholic; and Benjamin Daigre and Pauline Daigre, second cousins. The president of the church wardens told Hubert that he had been notified that the church had been seized. This does not alter matters. :: VI-2-a A.L.S. French 3pp. 32mo.

Scope and Contents Last night at the end of their meal a revolver shot was heard in their refectory. Some one had fired on them through the glass of the door. and escaped without being detected. They are completely ignorant of any motive. Neither he or Father Joseph Lavay, S.J. have had the least difficulty with anyone. Lavay was hit in the left arm; the doctors say the wound is not dangerous but it is not possible to extract the bullet at present. Hubert got off with pieces of broken glass in his face....

Scope and Contents Being charged by Father Curioz with the care of their little house, he saw the letter which Blanc wrote to Father Joseph Lavay, S.J .. Hubert is willing to stay as long as obedience commands. He would be sorry to leave the work begun. Up to now it was Lavay who took care of external works, especially the schools. But since the accident, Lavay no longer makes collections. The schools are still open but expenses are mounting. If Hubert were alone, he would have collected; Lavay being here, he...

Scope and Contents Hubert read Blanc's letter, just received, with a heavy heart. If Father Joseph Lavay, S. J. 's judgment was at fault, his heart was right. Hubert's reflection has made him fear that his last letter offended Blanc. If Hubert showed displeasure at their departure being delayed from week to week, it was because of the good of the parish. In speaking against Father George McMahon he did not wish to insinuate anything offensive in his character. He believed McMahon to be too young for Baton...

Scope and Contents Blanc's last letter gave Hubert the hope of a definite stay at Baton Rouge. The one he received yesterday from Father Aloysius Curioz, S.J. has upset the plans Hubert had. He is sorry personally that his plans were not fruitful but he must obey. Curioz wants him free to leave not later than the beginning of September. If Blanc has someone for this place, he is to send him so that Hubert can initiate him. Hubert has just dismissed the boys' school as the teacher became ill. Next month he will...

Scope and Contents It is more than a month since Hubert gave the boys of his school a vacation. It would be time to reopen classes. Having paid a good part of the salary due to the teacher, Hubert cannot contract new debts if he does not know what Blanc wants to do about Hubert's stay here. The trustees always say they have no money to pay him. So he cannot rehire Mr. McKay, the teacher, if he cannot pay him. So if Hubert is to be replaced and his successor does not wish to support the school the teacher must...

Scope and Contents When the interior of his church is finished, he will put up the Stations of the Cross. The old pictures are in a pitiful state. He seeks the necessary authorization to replace them. They are very well at Baton Rouge - this applies to their health not their purse. If he had the power he would send all the trustees of the world to bathe in the sources of the Nile. They pocket the revenues of the church, paying what they wish and caring very little if their pastor dies of hunger. He hopes that...

Scope and Contents Yes, Mr. Patrick C. Boyle is a noble man. It is too bad he was not treated more considerately by the college authorities. Maurice Francis Egan was there on a visit; he seemed more serious than usual and not perfectly at ease. That is probably a rumor about Msgr Robert Seton though he would he just the one for the chair named. What a sensation the O'Malley affair has made! It is unlikely Austin O'Malley will recover. They had a splendid retreat by Father Elias H. Younan, C.S.P. :: XI-2-e...

Scope and Contents Hudson cannot understand why his refusal of Mr. B. Durward 's article should excite Starr. It is the right of the editor to decline what he might consider unavailable to his columns. Hudson rejected her ballad because he felt it was too long to appear in the Ave Maria. He resents Starr's contesting his rights as to what should appear in the Ave Maria and he believes he was courteous in explaining his reasons for rejecting the poem. Charles Warren Stoddard and others, who know Hudson's...

Scope and Contents Father Hudson sends thanks for Brownson's letter and enclosure and encloses the proof of the Ave Maria article; the advertisement he thinks if just right.

Scope and Contents Father Hudson wishes Brownson and his household and all his friends in Detroit a happy new year.
