Hardcover. xxiv, 324 p.; 20 cm. `When Dr. Smithson [Pusey] came to hear our confessions at Helston [London] he always went into the sacristy, and remained there the greater part of the day. Each Sister went to him in regular rotation, and he never left the apartment except during the brief interval occupied in taking some refreshment. Miss Jones [Sellon]'s regulations were quite different. No one was allowed to se Dr. Smithson unless she was in the house; and, as a general rule, she remained in a room close to that in which he heard the confessions. After he he had heard each Sister, he generally went to her at once, before hearing the next Sister. Under such circumstances it was no wonder that we should feel pained, and fear that matters might be communicated to Miss Jones which we considered private.' (p. 96 f.) -- .`too preposterous to be credited by anyone acquainted with the character of Dr Pusey', Thomas Jay Williams, The Park Village Sisterhood, p. 114 -- `In 1859, after an unsatisfactory experience as an aspirant to the life of a Dominican under Mother Margaret Hallanan at Stone, Miss Cusack returned to her native Ireland to enter the Novitiate of the Irish Poor Clares at Newry. After Profession she was transferred to Kenmare. Her restlessness in whatever situation she might find herself, which had led her from Anglicanism to Roman Catholicism, caused her.in 1888 to return from her Roman allegiance to her parent Anglicanism. As a rabid Protestant she wrote and lectured in both England and America against the twin evils, Romanism and "Ritualism".' ibid., p. 115; on authorship and disguised names, p. x VG orig. violet cloth.
