Scope and Contents

John wrote a nice letter which cheered McMaster, who misses him. But John is at the age of manly responsibilities, and McMaster himself is not past it. John should rejoice in his youth, and should not forget to pray. He should try to receive Communion once a week, at least. In Boston he will have a cordial welcome if he calls at the Redemptorists, "Our Lady of Perpetual Help", where there are more Irish than Germans. If the Jesuits at St. Mary's Church, and Father O'Connor, S.J., of the Church of the Immaculate Conception, knew him as McMaster's son, they would treat him kindly. He encloses the key of the skates, asking John to write if he receives it. McMaster has given John's address to Gertrude McMaster, so John should keep the office informed of changes of address, and should ask his hotels to forward his letters. :: I-2-m A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
