McMaster, Gertrude, Baltimore, Maryland, to John Alphonsus McMaster, Brooklyn, New York, 1884 October 24
Scope and Contents
Having been told by Mother Beatrix of the Holy Spirit, D.C. that she might write John, she asks what he thought of Scranton, Pennsylvania. She had always thought that part of the country very beautiful and would have envied him were she not on a journey even more beautiful. She hopes he remains brave and cheerful as he promised. She is glad they can look back to happy hours together, and glad he has such a nice adopted sister. If he manages to write to her, he should tell whether he stopped at Philadelphia and saw Sister St. John McMaster, S.H.C.J., Uncle Will , and his other friends. She wonders if he will be in Brooklyn when Miss Aggie Harper goes to the Keiley's to give the boys a jolly time, and he must tell Jack not to laugh too hard. She will write a longer letter next time and sends him regards from Sister Teresa McMaster, D.C.. Additional note at head of letter: She asks if he remembers where she told him to get his socks. Mrs. Keiley will get them for him if he chooses. She sends regards. :: I-2-m A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
