Josephine Sister, Sister of Notre Dame, Namur Belgium, to Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, Cincinnati, Ohio, 1860 May 23

Sister Josephine writes concerning her father's death and thanks Purcell for helping it to be a happy one. She asks him to pray for her brothers, John, from whose letter she quotes, Gregory, and Thomas that they might be converted. Sister Josephine desires Purcell's Prayers to help her retain her vocation against all temptations. She is in Namur because of these difficulties since the going of M. Rogers. She intends to return to Cincinnati in a year and asks Purcell to give her regards to Father Collins. The Mother General to whom she confide her trouble goes today to England where they have 10 houses for a visit. The other sisters send their regards. :: II-5-a A.L.S. 6pp. 12mo.
