Pope talks about an article that she wrote for the Ave Maria. She thinks that poetry in the December 8th Number of the Ave Maria is pretty. Mr. Maurice Francis Egan's verses were exquisite. Pope loves the story of "Hops." Enclosed are two verses for the AveMaria. Hudson might slip the photograph in the cover if Egan has found it. Pope wishes that Hudson's photograph would come too. Gratitude is expressed to Hudson. Pope wishes Father Hudson a Happy, Happy Christmas. :: X-3-f A.L.S. 4pp. 12mo.
