Though only 2 weeks in the infirmary, Landry gave many examples of virtue. They recommend her to Blanc's prayers; also Madam Trichel, R.S.C.J., Who will not probably live till May. Madam St. Cyr, R.S.C.J. recently arrived at St. Michael with a novice from St. Louis and 2 young ladies from St. Charles, Missouri who are to receive the habit here a week from Friday with Julia Doyle . Madam Maria Cutts, R.S.C.J. writes that she would be on her way home, only she prefers waiting for the persons their Superior General promised for the different houses in America. The number of pupils is 87; she expects 100 before the end of spring. Madam Louisa Lévèque, R.S.C.J. enjoys better health than she has for some time past. A.L.S. On the same paper:
