Mass but once since the fall, and a new priest. There seems little hope of seeing their Bishop Bernard O'Reilly again. When the "Cambria" came in, there was great joy but it was soon dashed. It is a great loss to this diocese. Beers has just received a letter from Father Daniel Kelly, whose mission embraces, Cornwall, and Cannaan and all that region on the Housatonic. He wants Bayley to spend a Sunday with him in the latter part of June, and in case their own bishop does not come back, to give Confirmation to his children. Father is able to get out now with a staff, but is very lame. Mother is well and sends love. Ap. has been home a few days, full of business. Beers hopes to get to New York with Mother in May. If her mother could see the devotions in honor of the Blessed Mother, Beers is sure it would melt her stubbron heart. :: II-2-n A.L.S. 4pp. 16mo.
