Helen McMaster, writing from the Convent of Mount Carmel, blames her delay in answering her father's letter to the fact that Mother Beatrix forgot to tell her to write. She thanks Jen for her long letter. The Assumption is a beautiful feast when one contemplates its real meaning. The Sisters chanted the whole office and Matins so that the service lasted more than 2 hours. At High Mass that morning a group of ladies and gentlemen sang with the small melodien in the church and made the entire service very devotional. The nuns enjoy the music greatly in their child-like simplicity even those who have been in religion for many years. The community made a triduum to St. Teresa during the last three days. Jen wrote that McMaster was enjoying good health. Helen considers herself the strongest in health in the community. She encloses a photo of Sister St. John McMaster and would have sent her own photo but had no suitable envelope. She received her father's photo and has obtained permission to keep it. :: I-2-d A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
