She thanks Hudson for his letter and enclosure. She tries to change Hudson's passive attitude toward her story about the litanies by showing that this devotion has the approbation of the bishops. She reminds him that his lack of enthusiasm toward this new feature may be due to the severe mortifications to which he has been put. She believes that "Litanies" offer a great field for action. When her aunt was sick she had a good example of the narrow-mindedness of some priests and physicians. They objected to the use of water from Lourdes for the purpose of curing her aunt, thinking that that was tempting God. When her aunt was cured they expected a relapse anytime. This accounts for her reluctance to mention this miraculous recovery in her last letter. She believes that the Lord spared her aunt's life so that she may establish the order of the Immaculate Conception. Since her bishop's advisors are against the idea she has appealed to the Pope through the Jesuit Fathers. Soon she will send the Ave Maria the report of this cure and other materials to be used in a new series of articles entitled "Our Lady's Work in Our Midst". She regrets that she has not found any new reports to add to "Rays from the Tabernacle". She asks Hudson whether the translated Preface she is sending is done according to his specifications. :: X-2-d A.L.S. 7pp. 12mo.
