She tells of difficulties that a group of nuns are having in maintaining a boarding school. Protestants are luring children from the school and trying times in Ireland make it hard for people to pay for the board of their children. An adjacent lot is for sale and a Protestant seeks to buy it and open a slaughter house thus forcing the school to close. Funds are needed too for upkeep of the present school, improvement and enlargement, or else all is lost for the nuns at Abbeyleix. They appeal to Father Hudson for funds, but do not want the name of their school or convent known. She refers Hudson to Bishop James Lynch, Father Edward Murphy. S.J., or Father Timothy Maher, C.S.C., who visited them last week. Part of letter missing. :: X-2-g A.L.unsigned 6pp. 12mo.
