Scope and Contents

Sister takes advantage of Odin's friendship with the Blossman family to ask him to forward a letter. She has been unable to get word from her sister Mrs. Elena Blossman since she has been in Chile. Sister was very young when her mother died and she entered the Convent of the Sacred Heart in Havana. There being no novitiate there she went to Manhattanville where she received the white veil and after a time was sent to the Chile foundation and took her first vows in 1863. She is very happy in this country so much like her own. :: VI-2-n A.L.S. Spanish 3pp. 8vo.
