He was deeply grieved to learn of McMaster's wife's illness in his letter of July 1. He did not know of her illness and prays that God may give McMaster the consolation of seeing her restored to health. He will say masses for this intention and asks that no honorariums be sent for this simple duty of friendship. He prays that God will give McMaster strength to continue his work. He expects to be in New York the first of August and will stay with the Redemptorists on Thompson Street. :: I-1-o A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
