Scope and Contents

She thanks him for his letter and its enclosure. The article was very nice, and Mother had already had two answers to his appeal — she will send him the names and asks if she should do the same with others that may come. She is sending also the "Life of M. Teresa of Jesus Xaverine de Maistre". Sister Gertrude thinks it would be difficult to make her life interesting for general reading. She thanks him for promising to send the Freeman and the Quarterly. Mother is very pressed just now——The election was held on Thursday and Sister Angela is now Mother Sub-Prioress. She is glad that John Alphonsus is at home again, and reminds McMaster that he made his appeal to Carmel in her behalf two years ago today. They enjoyed his article on the "Watchful Worshipper". P.S. Sister Teresa is steadily improving. They shall pray for the Misses Drexel. :: I-2-g A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
