Lorretta, S.C., Sister M., Donaldsonville, Louisiana, to Bishop Anthony Blanc, New Orleans, Louisiana, 1845 March 18

Sister has not begged in vain; Mother says Sister M. Austin, S.C. is coming but wants money for her expenses; she says they cannot spare it. Sister Lorena is not aware that one is coming to take her place. She has been jealous of Sister Gonzague . Lorretta hopes she is the last old woman Mother will send. Today they received one of Mrs. Van Ranseleer's scholars; she will not like it. Mother says Sister Pauline is to go in Sister Clotilda 's place. Perhaps Sister Regina Smith, S.C. has received a letter to that effect. :: V-5-c A.L.S. 3pp. 4to.
