Scope and Contents An article in the last number of the Journal causes Daly some doubts. He holds to the same doctrine as does McMaster in that the people have the right to dispose of themselves. The Roman people appear to accept the rule of Victor Emmanuel with a great deal of complacency. The Papal States do not seem to belong to the people but to the Pope. Daly asks when the transfer of ownership occurred, since the people accepted the Pope as their temporal leader. No former conqueror had the right to...

Scope and Contents D'Arco spoke to his friend Bishop James Whelan and all is right. He was never satisfied to stay there but did a great deal of good since he came.

D'Arco extends his respects to the bishop's brother. If safe to do so, he requests Lefevere to express the...
