McMaster is glad that John is getting nearer New York, and that he is going to see the sisters. He urges John to make a long visit at Baltimore, Maryland, and to visit Sharon Hill, Pennsylvania, both going and coming. If he can, he should hunt up Mr. Sneeringer in Baltimore. He may skip any of the places this side of Pittsburgh if he wishes John should receive Communion on St. Alphonsus' Day if he can, but if he cannot, he should remember that the feast has an octave in all Redemptorist churches. John R. Gloniger is administrator of Gilbert Fetterman's estate, but has no right to act as administrator of the estate of John's grandmother, Sarah B. Fetterman, and McMaster wants John to call Dr. Oldshue's attention to Gloniger's statement that the stock he held as administrator was valuable. Gloniger ought to turn over to John and his sisters their Mother's one-fifth of this stock. John should asks Dr. Oldshue about his share of the sale of the Steel-Works, amounting to $4,370,00, which Dr. Oldshue invested. He should tell Dr. Oldshue that he wants the loan called in next May, as he can do better with the money. John's room has been prepared for him, to bid him welcome. :: I-2-m A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
