Scope and Contents

Kelly thankfully acknowledges receipt of official proceedings of the Catholic Congress. :: IX-1-c A.L.S. 1p. 8vo

Scope and Contents

Kelly makes the following suggestions on the Catholic Congress of 1893: The delegates should be limited in number, and leaders of thought should be chosen; foreign citizens should not be admitted to the Congress; the Public school question should hear the voices of special delegates of "our separated brethren." Kelly will be unable to attend the Committee's meetings. :: IX-1-c A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo

Scope and Contents

As the general term of their court convenes Oct. 5th and continues until July, Kelly's opportunities to go to Chicago are limited. He may be able to get off for a day after Oct. 5. He fully agreed with the Bishop as to the lines which will be pursued at the next Congress. If the school question and "Kindred debatable questions" are to be left out, Kelly will be pleased. He will vote to discuss social questions, which is a wide field, and not so dangerous. :: IX-1-c A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo

Scope and Contents He appeals to Purcell on behalf of two persons who have sinfully neglected the Church's laws but for whom he would beg indulgent consideration. Six years ago John Finney began to live with the wife of his deceased brother and the result of their cohabitation has been one child still living. At present John is near death but would not consent to a separation although he might die without the Sacraments. It is a case of blind stubborness in a man who is well spoken of and possesses the...

Scope and Contents Kemper thanks Hudson for his kind interest in Kemper's affairs. He took the verse from a small prayer sheet published by Sullivan of New York. He did not consider it wrong since it was sent to him from a Catholic House in Paris.

Notwithstanding the large quantity of artistic productions that Kemper has imported from the Dusseldorf Society the past few...

No acknowledgment necessary or desired. :: X-2-e...
