Scope and Contents

McMaster has received John's letters and ought to have written him at Wilmington, Delaware. He thinks Father Ben J. Keiley must have been a pleasant friend, and he was glad John went to Communion. He hopes that he will do so often. He misses John very much, but consoles himself with the thought the Sisters so often express, that it will not to be long before they will all be together, not to be separated again. Separation for a time is the lot of this world, and troubles must be faced bravely and gaily, with the thought that the end will come soon. He advises John to get thick soled shoes. The $100.00 John sent brought tears to his face when he thought of the hard tramps it cost John to get it. He urges John to take care of himself, and not to forget his prayers. He feels sure John will always deserve his good and noble reputation. :: I-2-m A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
