She has always neglected to ask Hudson when he acknowledged the $5 the sent him in April. If Hudson has sent the Ave Maria to the Carmelite Convent in Baltimore they have never alluded to it. She is afraid there may be some mistake. Money is dirt but a good understanding is gold, as she cannot be too exact since becoming a widow. She aks Hudson to excuse the inquiry but they have a new Mother who has not yet found and learned the ways. She hopes Hudson is having success and she sees that God's pennies are helping him and she wonders where the devil's gold is. Hudson should read Father Michael Muller's "Catholic Priest." She has received his new book on grace. She has just received from Rome a splendid works and engravings of the "Principali Monumenti di Roma", she wonders why everyone is so kind to her. Her health is good for an old lady but the rheumatism in her limbs is very inconvenient. She has never been more interested than she is in the conclusion of "Cyril" as her faith is the same, and it sustained her after the death of her father. People in the world cannot understand this. :: X-2-e A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
