Scope and Contents

He thanks Odin for again recommending him to Cardinal Alexander Barnabo . To Odin's letter last summer Layton was indebted for being received by the Holy Father. He asks counsel on a matter which his father will lay before Odin. The Convention will be carried into effect on December 15. As a Catholic he espouses the cause of the Holy Father and asks his parents' permission to enter the Pontifical Zouaves or any other corps of Papal troops Odin might suggest. He knows the sacrifice he asks of his father and mother is great but he doubts not their faith admits the force of his appeal. :: VI-2-l A.L.S. 3pp. 12mo.
