Anatolie C..S.J., Sister Marie, New Orleans, Louisiana, to Archbishop John Mary Odin, C.M., New Orleans, Louisiana, 1865 April 8

She asks Odin how to reply to a request of Father J.M. Bertail. He wanted to have a sung Mass for Palm Sunday; he consented to prayers without singing but said there must he a High Mass on Easter. For an afflicted heart there is a more eloquent good work. She is continually sad; she does not think she can accustom herself to stay here. Later, when there is some one at the head, she likes to think she can accustom herself to stay here. Later, when there is some one at the head, she likes to think that Odin will understand her reasons and intercede for her to leave for France. The day Odin visited them only one thing occupied her, the loss of one whom she venerated with all her being. :: VI-2-i A.L.S. French 3pp. 12mo.
