It is time to give McFarland an account of the Sisters of Mercy he gave to Nashville. They are just the ones most likely to succeed. They began schools immediately and have nearly 400 scholars and after six months could have 600 if they could handle them. If the community were large enough they could handle a select school. He wrote to Mother Bernard and asked for a few more Sisters. His excuse is the great need, and he hopes that McFarland will not object to sending a few more. He hopes McFarland has been in good health since the Council. He has been visiting. Mother Clare has been ill for some days with a bad cold but is much better today. :: I-1-b A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
