Sister Louise, prioress of the Convent of Mount Carmel, acknowledges McMaster's letter and the clippings from the paper. She is sorry to have bothered him but she thought it would be well to see some of the articles which His Grace has mentioned to them. She thinks it would be best if McMaster were to send the $100. to Father George W. Devine since they do not wish to use it for expenses unless they are forced to. She thanks those who generously responded to his appeal. On the day of the clothing of Helen McMaster the Order will be fasting but it will not be a black fast, hence McMaster may treat the Sisters if he cares to. The family of the postulant does not usually provide a breakfast for the guests since the Sisters give a small repast for the priests in the ceremony. She appreciates McMaster's kind offer but declines it. She expects McMaster on the day of the clothing and thanks him for his favors to the community. :: I-2-d A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
