Halkett, Emily M(ary) G(abrielle): London, (England) to (Monsignor Robert Seton: Jersey City Heights, New Jersey), 1892 January 23

She was delighted to see (Seton)'s handwriting again. Mrs. Stokes(?) forwarded the letter. Her brother's (Hugh G. Halkett) address will always find her. The Church is going to have a mission in the Eastend under her director and she is going to be sacristan and nurse the sick. This mission was the last piece of work on earth of Cardinal (Henry Edward Manning). She is sending (Seton) a paper with the account of the funeral. A niece of the Cardinal and Halkett were the only two ladies in the funeral procession. (Manning) was a true father ever since Halkett's reception into the church. Her brother is very busy; he is the radical candidate for Chester. As the Conservatives have always had Chester it is doubtful whether he will get in.
