The letters Stoddard likes most to receive are those of Hudson and Father John Pinasco, S.J., president of Santa Clara College. Stoddard thanks Hudson for the medal and picture. He plans to send Hudson some notes on Bishop Louis Maigret, who died recently. The notice of the book "The Religious: A Treatise on the Vows and Virtues of the Religious State" attracted Stoddard's attention and he wants it because he believes it contains the explanation he has been seeking concerning a religious vocation. :: X-2-j A.L.S. 4pp. 4to.
