Eleanor C. Donnelly
Eleanor Cecilia Donnelly (September 6, 1838 – April 30, 1917) was a Catholic American poet, short story writer and biographer. She was known as “The Poet of the Pure Soul,” and was the sister of the lawyer and author Ignatius Loyola Donnelly who served as lieutenant governor and U.S. Congressman from the state of Minnesota.
==Life and writing==

Eleanor C. Donnelly was born on September 6, 1838, the sixth child of Dr. Philip Carol Donnelly and Catherine Gavin Donnelly.〔''(Selections from Eleanor C. Donnelly )'' 1904〕 Her father died of typhus when she was still an infant. Educated at home by her mother, Donnelly began to write poetry at age nine. Her family encouraged and supported the development of her literary talents. The Donnelly's often hosted gatherings of prominent Philadelphia Catholic writers and intellectuals at their home. As a young woman Donnelly hoped to enter a religious order. At one point she tried the convent life but it proved too taxing.
Donnelly composed a number of poems during the early years of the American Civil War, several of which were published, often unattributed and without her permission.〔Schmandt 1987, p. 163〕 Encouraged by her friends and family to protect her claims to these poems, which often dealt with themes of loss and grief, she collected many of them in her first book, ''Out of Sweet Solitude'', published in 1873. A prolific writer, during her lifetime Donnelly published over thirty books, including pamphlets and revised or rearranged editions, and produced hundreds of poems, including a number of collections of children's verse. Her poetry largely addresses Catholic and spiritual themes and she often composed poems to commemorate religious events and celebrations.
She authored two biographies: ''A Memoir of Father Felix Joseph Barbelin, S.J.'', on the first president of St. Joseph's College (now St. Joseph's University), and ''Life of Sister Mary Gonzaga Grace, of the Daughters of Charity of St. Vincent de Paul, 1812-1897'', the long-serving administrator of St. Joseph's Orphan Asylum in Philadelphia.

Donnelly also served terms as chief editor of the Augustinian magazine, ''Our Lady of Good Counsel'', and as an associate editor of the Philadelphia Catholic weekly paper, ''The Catholic Standard and Times''.〔Schwertner 1917〕
Donnelly died on April 30, 1917. A long editorial in the local Philadelphia Catholic newspaper described her as "one of the foremost Catholic woman-poets of America."〔Schmandt 1987, p. 163〕 Her funeral was held in the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul in Philadelphia, at which Archbishop Prendergast gave the final absolution.〔Schwertner 1917 〕
