The Mother Superior says that their letters are to continue during Lent, for John needs their love and sympathy now that he is more than ever alone. The Mother Superior was much touched by John's thoughtfulness about the palms. Their father used to send twenty-five beads, and John will be rewarded for his thoughtfulness if he can send them, and he will be rewarded for his good intention if he cannot. John is asked to tell Major John D. Keiley that they appreciated Mr. Anthony Keiley's tribute to their father. The Mother Superior asks John to send the Freeman whenever there is anything in it that would interest them. Sister Gertrude will wait until Easter to answer Mrs. Keiley's letter, unless there is a very important matter coming up. It would be nice if she could come up for Easter. :: I-2-m A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
