Preferred Citation James Farnham Edwards Papers (EDW), University of Notre Dame Archives (UNDA), Notre Dame, IN 46556 Scope and Content Journals, personal correspondence, business correspondence, and memorabilia including broadsides and advertisements, calling and business cards, invitations, announcements, menus, post cards, programs, religious objects, tickets, and passes; class records including student lists, grade books, student exams and class notes, files on student organizations, and other student records; records of the Lemonnier Library including correspondence, library subscription and use records, publishers' notices, book and periodicals lists, notes and articles about the library, and receipts; Bishops' Memorial Hall records (closely connected with the library's) including correspondence, accession and account books, descriptions of artifacts, notes and articles about Bishops' Memorial Hall and its collections, and records of the Columbian Exposition (1893); autographs, church financial reports, manuscripts collected by Edwards, Notre Dame notes, pamphlets, poetry, printed material, speeches, artifacts, and photographs. Because the calendaring project at the University of Notre Dame Archives was never completed, the papers of James F. Edwards are only partially calendared. The remaining records have been arranged according to the four main activities of Edwards' life. These are: Personal Papers, Class Records, Lemonnier Library Records, and Bishops' Memorial Hall Records. A final category has also been included for miscellaneous notes and collected items found among Edwards' papers which do not belong in the above series. Divisions between the four main series, especially in the correspondence, are often difficult to make; Edwards spent fifty-two years of his life at Notre Dame and his personal life was often indistinguishable from his professional life. No original order has been kept because of the chaotic state in which these documents had been found. Items within folders are arranged chronologically; undated material, commencement and wedding announcements, business and calling cards, tickets and passes are arranged alphabetically. Although a few family papers dated as early as 1859 in the collection, the bulk of Edwards' own records cover 1880-1909. Another difficulty which has arisen with this collection is its provenance. Several of the semi-processed 19th-century collections at the Notre Dame Archives contain similar materials and documents from each, over the years, have been inadvertantly placed with the wrong collections. Documents found among Edwards' papers which clearly did not belong, such as letters and other records dated after Edwards' death, have been transferred to the proper collections; however, those which had already been calendared remain with the Edwards papers. Approximately half of the collection (15 of the original 30 feet) consisted of deteriorating newspapers and newsclippings on various topics. These have been recommended for disposal because of their disorder, high acidity and fragility, availability on microfilm, and original use as a library resource. Exceptions to this include a small collection of clippings on Notre Dame, a substantial collection of articles compromising to Protestants collected by Father Timothy O'Sullivan and given to Edwards, and a collection of Civil War poems clipped and copied by Miss Abby Hemenway. The Notre Dame articles and the Civil War poetry have been separated into individual collections and the clippings photocopied. The O'Sullivan clippings compromising to Protestants have been added to the Timothy O'Sullivan Collection (COSU). Other newsclippings enclosed with letters and telegrams have been photocopied and the originals have been discarded. A small collection of photographs, of Edwards and clergy, has been separated into the James F. Edwards Photo Collection (GEDW). Calendared Background University of Notre Dame history professor and librarian. Edwards devoted most of his fifty-two years at Notre Dame to collecting artifacts and manuscripts from American Catholic clergy for his Bishops' Memorial Hall and Catholic Archives of America. As a result of his acquisition efforts, he knew and corresponded with many prominent Catholics of the late nineteenth century. James Farnham Edwards, University of Notre Dame librarian and founder of the Notre Dame Archives and Bishops' Memorial Hall, was born 15 April 1850 in Toledo, Ohio to Paul S. and Elizabeth (Rutledge) Edwards, Irish immigrants. Edwards' father, a gregarious man, had several different jobs during Jimmie's youth, including co-owner of Edwards and Steedman Billiard Rooms; proprietor of the Adelphi Theatre in Toledo; Collector of the Tolls on the Miami and Erie Canal; and Inspector of Tobacco, Snuff, and Cigars for the Tenth Collection district of the State of Ohio. At the outbreak of the Civil War, Paul Edwards was the first recruiting officer in Northwestern Ohio, commissioned as Major in August 1861 and later promoted to Colonel and commanding officer of the 182d Regiment. Edwards came to Notre Dame at the age of nine as a minim. Under the affectionate tutelage of Fathers Sorin and Lemonnier he progressed in his studies, eventually entering the Senior Department in 1866. The idea of a Bishops' Memorial Hall first came to Edwards in the late 1860s. He wanted to create a monument to the leaders of the Catholic Church in America by preserving their vestments, portraits, and other relics, and to this vision Edwards dedicated the rest of his life. In 1871, Edwards became a formal candidate for the Holy Cross Community; however, due to poor health he was forced to abandon the priesthood. Instead, twenty-one-year-old Edwards was appointed assistant professor of Rhetoric and Latin in the Preparatory School at Notre Dame while he continued to study for a Bachelor of Laws degree. During 1872-73 Father Lemonnier established the circulating library and gradually turned over its control to Edwards. In 1874 Father Lemonnier died, and Edwards renamed the library after his mentor and friend. During this time he also continued to build his Bishops' Collection and Gallery in the Main Building. After receiving his degree in 1875, Edwards was appointed assistant professor of English and History, and in 1876-77 he became a regular professor of history. Although he wasn't the best or most interesting of professors, Edwards was very fond of his young students and often treated them to parties. Parents sought his advice because they knew the kind professor would look after their sons. One of his particular friends, George Rhodius, came under Edwards' influence because of his mother's confidence in his reliability. The Rhodius family of Indianapolis was quite wealthy from extensive real estate, and Marie Rhodius depended on Edwards to give George personal attention. The professor and student became friends and went on several European trips together. They remained close, even through George's scandalous "playboy" years before his death in 1909. As a result of the April 1879 fire, most of the library's holdings and the Bishops' Collection was destroyed. Although valuable artifacts and books had been lost, Edwards was not disheartened and began to collect more vigorously than ever. He had an exceptional talent for increasing the library on a small budget; and generous clergymen, parents, students, and friends donated money, books, and artifacts. In 1886 Edwards sporadically began to publish a list of acquisitions to the Bishops' Memorial Hall, and notices of new relics appeared in the Scholastic . Included as part of the Hall were the Catholic Archives of America and the Catholic Reference Library of America. Portraits, mitres, croziers, manuscripts, books, etc. were all included in Edwards' collections and he travelled extensively to acquire them. Although Edwards' preservation efforts interested many Catholics around the world and he gained several prestigious friends, he never felt his work was truly appreciated by his colleagues at Notre Dame. Father Daniel Hudson and Professor Maurice Egan seem to have been his main supporters on campus. The friction between Edwards and those who controlled the college became so unbearable in 1888 that he sent in his resignation to Father Thomas Walsh, President of the University. His unhappiness, however, was relieved by the offer of a collection trip to Europe. Edwards also wished for a separate building for his Bishops' Memorial Hall but this never materialized. Portraits and display cabinets lined the third and fourth floors of the Main Building, and his library looked more like a museum; Edwards was obviously a much better collector of artifacts than librarian and professor. Most Notre Dame faculty thought it best to humor him, since Professor Edwards had gained so many prominent friends for the University including John Gilmary Shea, Ellen Ewing Sherman, Archbishop Robert Seton, Cardinal Gibbons, and Cardinal Newman. Edwards and his Bishops' Memorial Hall participated in the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago. The exhibit received awards for excellence and Edwards received a special Diploma of Honor for his "untiring zeal in the interest of the Catholic Church's Historical Matters." Professor Edwards and his plan to preserve Catholic history in America became well publicized as a result of the Exposition and contributions to the Hall increased. In 1906 Edwards gave up his post as Professor of History but continued on as full-time librarian and collector. He had never enjoyed good health and as he got older, his energy waned. In 1909 Edwards suffered a serious paralytic stroke which forced him to resign from all active duty. When he was able to travel, he tried to regain his strength at various health resorts but to no avail. In the summer of 1910, he suffered a second stroke and in January 1911, the life of James Farnham Edwards came to a quiet end in St. Joseph's Hospital in South Bend, Indiana. A Requiem Mass was said for him at the Sacred Heart Church, Notre Dame and, escorted by the Notre Dame Battalion, the body of Professor James Edwards was laid to rest in the Holy Cross Cemetary.

He sends his respects to Father Edward Sorin C.S.C. CEDW XI-1-a Rome, Italy May 2 He has Edward's letter and was somewhat embarraseed in answering as they do not know each other. He was ignorant of the existence of Edward's library until he sent the few words of introduction from Father Sorin. He does not hesitate to send a photo. There is a striking portrait of him at Vincennes . He was born at Cansbourg, France, May 2, 1798, ordained at Paris, St. Salpice, May 28, 1825. After ten years of vicariat at Rennes, he volunteered for the mission of Vincennes, Indiana and left France with Bishop Simon Brute o n July 1, 1836. He was given the title of honorary canon and Vicar-General of Vincennes. He was charged with the Parish of Vincennes and to replace the bishop during his absences. At the close of 1838 he was sent to France for money and priests. Brute died while he was still in France, June, 1839. De la Hailandiere had known of his nomination as co-adjutor to the Bishop of Vincennes and had written to express his refusal. But death changed all. Father Mollevaut advised him to accept since he knew the condition of the diocese. The consecration took place in Paris, August 18, 1839 with that of Msgr. Morlot who died Cardinal of Paris, celebrated by Msgr. Forbin de Jansons who accompanied de la Hailandiere to America. He sent on to America 20 new recruits under the guidance of Abbe Augustine Martin, later Bishop of Natchitoches. De la Hailandiere went to the diocese of Mans, France to secure some Sisters of Providence of Ruille-sur-Loire, some priests, and to see Father Basil Antoine Moreau C.S.C. who promised some Brothers for Vincennes. He devoted himself to the administration of his diocese for 12 years and at last at the Council of Baltimore found a chance to rid himself of the burdens which he had found too heavy, he not having the talents necessary to a bishop. His resignation was accepted June, 1847. He intended to remain in the diocese but his health was impaired and after spending the winter in New Orleans, he sailed for France, June, 1848. As first Bishop of Vincennes it is around Brute that all researches center concerning the origin of Catholicity in the valley of the Mississippi. Brute was too great a man to be disposed of in a passing notice. Dom Jausions did not write from the heart when he wrote the life of Brute. De la Hailandiere loaned Jonson all Brute's letters and his own correspondence. He has since recovered them but does not know what became of them. Archbishop John Hughes of New York wished to write a life of Brute. De la Hailandiere sent him a trunk of manuscripts. Hughes died before writing anything. De la Hailandiere wonders what has become of these manuscripts. M. de Courcey, a correspondent of the Universe, writing under the name of De la Roche. Heron published some of de la Mennais' letters to Brute. The rest are at New York. The chevalier Morgan of Vinconnes, sent from France, belongs to a family of Picardy. In 1722 he was sent by Count de Frontenac to command the Miamies established on St. Joseph River near South Bend Indiana and at Chicago. After the defeat of the French in the war against the Chichawsas, May 26, 1736 he was made prisoner and burned alive. Benedict Joseph Flaget came from Baltimore to Vinconnes in 1792 or 3. There were 700 or 800 inhabitants at Vincennes. Flaget told De la Hailandiere of a certain man of Vincennes married to a Potawatomis, who died in defense of two Jesuits. This is perhaps the chevalier Morgan. Flaget arrived at Kaskakias five or six years after the death of the last Jesuit, Father Meurin . A Josuit, Father Vivien is buried under the sanctuary of the old church. Note: There is a partial translation attached. :: XI-1-a A.L.S. French 11pp. 12mo. 18 CEDW XI-1-a Andrews, D.

Those who have driven him to these steps may have reason to regret it all the days of their lives. He would have gone to Notre Dame the night of the same day that Father Patrick Condon arrived there but he was too sick.

He has heretofore been greatly mistaken in the character of that person. There is some misunderstanding about the picture of Father Alexis Granger, C.S.C. provincial. Stoffel understood that Luigi Gregori wanted the photograph first, and that he would come down only when the picture was nearly finished. Edwards will do well to send Gregori a portrait of Father Granger, as it would be hard to get Father Granger to town and besides he would not take off his ugly beard for a photo.

Perhaps she owes an apology for the hasty letter to Mother Ascension, but she was unwilling to have Father Lemonnier's anniversary pass with her duty unfulfilled. In Utah the spiritual aspect is as hard as the material. The natural outgrowth of the educational system of Robert Dale Owen and Fanny Wright has presented its poisonous fruit—the utter blotting out of the Christian sense.

He hopes Edwards will come there this summer. He should very much enjoy seeing the corpulent vice-president Thomas E. Walsh, C.S.C. bracing up to a load of bricks. There is no doubt but that he does it gracefully. Brother Timothy C.S.C. was up here, but the Bishop Thomas L. Grace refused to give his sanction to a subscription paper, but friends of Notre Dame were free to contribute.

CEDW XI-1-d Dunbar, Mrs. Catherine, Paris, France, to James F. Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana 1886? June 2 She felt her departure keenly without seeing her loved ones' graves or having anything done for them. How could such cold ingratitude ever find its way there where they have been such tried and true friends of everyone in Notre Dame. The Colonel Robert Dunbar took care of Father M.B. Brown, C.S.C., Father General Edward Sorin, C.S.C . and Father Alexis Granger, C.S.C. with the solicitude of a father for no consideration. Only one thing could recompense him that is gratitude, this she was denied. They paid Father General all they could and more. She asks if there is much Christian religion in it. Why should she be obliged to find a chapel if she didn't see fit? Besides if a person wants one to do anything it should be done graciously. She has abandoned the idea of building altogether. If Father Sorin had invited Father S.P. Lalumiere kindly as he ought, he could have told him she did not forget him. Edwards was like a son to her. She will substitute him for her darling son. Edwards is the magnet that brought the people to Notre Dame, his kind heart and gentlemanly deportment. Sorin did not invite her to Notre Dame to see the graves of her husband and son; he can never make that injustice right. Oh to think of the ingratitude of Notre Dame. :: XI-1-d A.L.S. 7pp. 12mo.

It pained him to see the Philadelphia Historical Society try to imitate Edwards and thus divert much that would go to Notre Dame. Shea will forward proofs of the portraits of Bishop Laval and St.Vallier of Quebec, Bishop Tejada, Ven. Anthony Margil, Giffard, and Father Joques.

Shea had supposed the photo bore the name of the Havana photographer so that he could write him to hunt up one of Cirilo Sieni of Barcelona, tit. bp. of Tricali. Shea knows of no life of Bishop John England except Read's article in the "Cabinet". He can send Edwards the funeral discourses on Bishop Simon Brute. Shea suggests that Catholic libraries should exchange duplicates. He relates a friend of his found ten copies of Bishop Cheverus' French Testament printed in Boston.

He asks if his confessor Father Alexis Granger, C.S.C. when he was a student at Notre Dame in '53 and '54 is still living. P.S. He read of some allusion to a "Museum"; if it would be considered worth while he could send a Thomas A. Kempis, latin, dated 1617; an Indian prayer book and several autographs of American Bishops.

There is no order or cataloging of the library. Affairs are in a bad way. Sympathizing with the rebels in the civil war and liquor have been the cause of all the anguish.

She would like to will the portrait of the Archbishop's Mother to the Memorial Hall, Notre Dame, and the Lord Baltimore letter, but she does not know what to do on account of her married sister. It seems that Miss Barry's uncle had a fine oil painting of Archbishop John Carroll taken by Stuart, but it was sold many years ago.

Shea hopes to contribute to Memorial Hall, but anything of Bishops' Concanen, Conally, Egan and Penalver is very scarce. Archbishop Neale wrote little and his letters are brief and business-like. Shea is much indebted to Edwards for the offer of a photograph of Bishop Luke Concanen of New York. There are few originals of bishops in his hands. Shea's father's hostility to Bishop John Dubois and Bishop John Hughes made bishops shy of Shea when he was young. The Cincinnati attacks created a still more wide-spread prejudice against Shea. :: XI-1-e A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo. CEDW XI-1-e Onahan, William J., Chicago, Illinois, to James F.

Carrier regrets that he cannot send the personal objects mentioned. They were lost in the gulf of Mexico in 1876. As to war memorials he sends a pair of brass candlesticks, cruets and a poor photograph of himself in uniform. The only mark of his position as chaplain was a silver cross on his left shoulder. He sends also his diplomas. The Licientiate of Science was awarded to him as a special favour. The chalice he used during the war was a small silver one that could be taken apart; he probably left it at Besancon or Leo or St. Vincent. He forwards for the N.D.

CEDW XI-1-e Ryan, Archbishop Patrick, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to James F. Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana 1887 Apr. 21 The portrait pleases him.

Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana 1887 Apr. 22 She writes to thank Edwards for his kindness in having a Mass said for her intentions at the Privileged altar at Notre Dame. She bears up under the office work better than at first and feels that it was Edwards' prayers that helped her obtain such a fine home. Dr. Campbell, the Medical Referee who has charge of her Division is coming to see her soon — a compliment he does not usually pay to his clerks.

Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana 1887 Apr. 25 He is delighted with the Roman painting of Bishop Concanen. It is the one he wishes to engrave. Edwards succeeded wonderfully in reproducing the countenance of Bishop Egan. The disappearance of the Porro portrait is strange. Shea wants a portrait of Bishop Flaget. He must send some corrections to the "Scholastic" sketch, making him Shea out of Catholic Maryland origin when he sprung from Massachusett Puritan heretics, and instead of being a nice boy, he was the archrebel of the school. :: XI-1-e A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo. CEDW XI-1-e Carroll, Rebecca and Jeannie, Washington, D.C., to James F. Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana 1887 Apr. 26 It seems that Edwards has forgotten to write.

She appreciates Edwards' scolding her for want of fortitude in her earthly trials. She is about to take a nice little house not far from St. Peter's Church. She may not resume her duties at the office for a long time yet. She wishes so much to enjoy domestic pleasures.

The loss of his daughter left him utterly prostrated and he spent ten days in Washington. He feels better, but is not strong and is heavily worked. He is busy getting out the third volume of the Lives of the Bishops as well as the entire set of three volumes.

It was a bitter disappointment to forego the trip to Notre Dame. He returns the letter of Bishop John B. David.

The Holy Father did not allow Archbishop Jacobini and himself to come to America. With regard to making the church of the University of Notre Dame a Basilica minor, the Pope asks the Bishop offer many reasons for it. Straniero suggests as reasons that it is the church of the largest Catholic university of America and that it contains the paintings of Gregori. About the Sisters approval of the rules of the Sisters of the Holy Cross, Jacobini has taken the affair in his own hands and has written to Sorin. P. S.

She was invited to the Catholic University to attend a course of lectures but it was too deep for her. She thinks Miss Mary Gwendolin Caldwell's picture is out of place in Divinity Hall. Miss Carroll has a home with her niece Mrs. Burritt and her family. The new St. Peter's will be a beautiful place, built upon ground donated by her father.

If Edwards sees Mr. Herman Ridder at New York, he is to tell that Straniero wishes to be paid every month instead of every six months. He is to keep his name as correspondent of the Catholic News a secret. In Rome there is a great fight in the offices against the correspondents of papers. Cardinal Mazzelli refused to say anything more about the Sisters of Holy Cross nuns; he asked him not to wire Edwards anything. :: XI-1-g A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.

After his father's death it was decided that he should continue the affairs, but he decided he was too young. His father's oldest clerk assumed the liabilities. Gilbert is cashier for the cotton-sugar firm of Maxwell, Peale and Allen. He hopes Edwards' trip to Europe will prove beneficial. Gilbert spent 18 months in Paris. He invited Edwards to visit him; he could hear his sister's voice, pronounced the most beautiful contralto voice ever heard for her age.

The agreement Edwards sent, Shea had a copy in Archbishop Ambrose Marechal's hand, but the original in Archbishop John Carroll's hand with erasures is extremely curious and important. Most written about Bishop Patrick Kelly's career at Norfold Virginia is incorrect. Shea feels that the publication of his life of Carroll will bring out material that will make revision necessary. He gave offense to some of the Germans. The origin of the German church in Philadelphia was queer. Shea will copy the Carroll-Molynoux agreement and return it. :: XI-1-g A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.

The only American priest who exceeded Father John Carroll, Chaplain of the Mercy Hospital, Chicago, in years was Father Joseph Louis Neyron who died at Notre Dame Some months ago in his 96th year. Neyron had been a soldier under Napoleon. Professor Maurice F. Egan says he is not sorry to be rid of the vexatious cares of Catholic journalism.

But he knows that his heart is in the right place. It is wonderful to see the amount of new buildings going up in German cities. The streets are clean and lined with trees. He attended Mass in the magnificent cathedral of Cologne; never had he heard such sublime music. :: XI-1-g A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo. CEDW XI-1-g Hudson C.S.C. Daniel E., Notre Dame, Indiana, to James F.

CEDW XI-1-h Shea, John Gilmary, Elizabeth, New Jersey, to James F. Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana 1890 June 24 It was with great reluctance that he found he must give up any attempt to travel. He cannot hope to gather all the material on the period he is treating. The gentleman of whom Shea spoke was Col. Bernard U. Campbell of Ellicott's Mills, Maryland, who began a life of Archbishop John Carroll in U. S. Catholic Magazine. He had collected much from Bishop Edward Fenwick of Cincinnati, O. and Father George Fenwick, both interested in such matters. He had trunks full of papers but his widow finally destroyed them. When the United States menaced New Orleans all the papers of Bishops Luis Penalver y Cardenas and William V. DuBourg were put in a fire place and bricked up. Later the wall was removed and as no one had thought to close the top of the chimney, the rain made the papers a mass of pulp. They were thrown away. Father Peter Cooney, C.S.C. told Shea he bought the valuable Catholic historical pamphlets on the Rev. Joseph M. Finotti sale, forwarded them to Notre Dame and never could trace the bundle. It was opened some taken by one, some by another. It is strange how people will pass judgment on papers and destroy things they know nothing about. The Annapolis edition of Rev. Charles H. Wharton's Poetical Epistle to George Washington would be worth $500. Shea has a New England edition hitherto unknown. Wharton who had apostatized was answered by his kinsman, Father John Carroll. There are catechisms that are of value for purposes of study: Hogan's; Bishop Henry Conwell's, so incorrect that he had to suppress it; Bishop Benedict J. Flaget's, which was sharply criticized; Reuter's German Catechism, which was the basis of a complaint at Rome against Bishop Carroll. Records of Councils, Synods and Statutes are rare because Catholics have wantonly destroyed them. He hopes Edwards' work will check vandalism. :: XI-1-h A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.

It is a sacrifice but he would be able to consult it.

He hopes the prelate at the Vatican who was quoted at saying that parochial schools must not be made unless equal to the public schools was misrepresented. :: XI-1-i A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo. CEDW XI-1-i Keane, Bishop John J. Rector Catholic University of America,, Washington, D. C., to James F. Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana 1891 May 7 Edwards' idea of a grand central collection of all materials on the history of the Catholic Church in the United States is an admirable one. Keane is convinced that Edwards has done more towards the realization of this idea than any other person or institution. The testimony of John Gilmary Shea is conclusive on this point. No institution is likely to rival Notre Dame in the matter. The Catholic University must make as good a collection as it can of documents concerning the history of the church. But the collection at Notre Dame will remain unique. Edwards' proposition that Notre Dame should be the official and central archives must depend on the concerted action of the Bishops. They should decide if such archivium is desirable. The matter might be brought up at the annual meeting of the Archbishops in St. Louis. :: XI-1-i A.L.S. 5pp. 12mo.

John Gilmary Shea is more fitted to write such a paper. The time is ripe for such a theme. He regrets the indifference with which American Catholics treat the approach of the fourth centennial anniversary of the discovery of America, the brightest jewel in the earthly crown of the Catholic Church. The Chicago Exposition is destined to be a world renowned event. The celebration on Oct. 12 should be distinctly Catholic. Catholic writers should direct their talents to the indication of the truth of history that to glorify the discovery of America is to sound the praises of the Catholic Church. :: XI-1-i A.L.S. 10pp. 12mo.
