Father Fitzpatrick says he would have written sooner, but he wished to see Father Emil de Augustinis, S.J. before writing, to make known Mc Master's request. He met him Sunday. Dec. 7., and reports that Father de Augustinis will be happy to do a favor for McMaster and his daughter, Sister St. John. Father de Augustinis and Father Alois Sabetti S.H. will share the intention; McMaster and his will be remembered by them and theirs. He has been asked by the Father Provincial to help out in the mission being conducted at Holy Innocent's, since the work in Baltimore is light, and since Father Bernard A. Maguire, S.J. is "hor de combat" in Boston. Father August Langcake S.J. has charge of the mission band which should be six but is only five. Father Fitzpatrick hopes before returning to Loyola on the 20th or 21st to see Mc Master in his office. Gertrude and Helen send greetings by him. P.S. He appreciates McMaster's kind gift of the "Freeman" for two years. Father W.F. Clarke, S.J. was alone able to read it until now, but now all may read it. Several share the distinction of liking expressed by Father Smith; Father Fitzpatrick hopes all will realize the hope expressed by McMaster for Father Smith. :: I-2-e A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
