Adam sends $10.00 for a subscription for the Santa Cruz Sisters of Charity. He will send another $10.00 in a few days, to make them "life subscribers". He thanks Hudson for retouching his sketches and is sorry he makes errors in spelling proper names. In the No. 13 issue of the Ave Maria it appears that San Jose has 1,500 inhabitants. Really it has 15,000. Adam will soon receive a book concerning the principal sanctuaries of Our Lady in Spain. He will translate whatsoever he finds of general interest. He wishes a Merry Christmas to all Ave Maria subscribers. To this is added: A note "I did not write", and an acknowledgment of $10.00 received, in Hudson's handwriting. :: X-2-d A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
