McMaster D.C. Sister Gertrude of the Heart of Jesus, Baltimore, Maryland, to James Alphonsus McMaster, New York, New York, 1886 March 12
Scope and Contents
She thanks him for the box of lemons he sent and reports the other nuns as saying that he is always thinking of them. She remembers her mother, and how much they all owe her. She urges McMaster to write his Act of Consecration to the Blessed Virgin and sign it the day of the Annunciation, March 25. She hopes McMaster will like the book on the Divine Office and give it a favorable notice, for the pen is a powerful weapon, and in his hands has a... blessed mission. The whole convent writes with her and Sister Teresa in sending love. P.S. His letter came, and the books he sent. She is sorry that she cannot give him the family name of the Carmelite who wrote the Month of St. Joseph. Her name in Religion is Mere Marie de la Conception. The book was published in Paris in 1883. :: I-2-f A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
