My dear Father Mangan
Permit me to thank you for your kind
note of the 25 instant
Regarding the placement of an ad
yetesement in the papers. One of our
Superiors in E ngland wrote me
yesterday saying that she had already
placed one in the Universe which
will run for seven Sundays
That will suffice but when I spoke
of it I did not know that she
had already negotiated for this.
Besides, Father Senan has kindly
offered to write an article, for
The Father Matthews Riport for the month
f June. I certainly feel grateful
and privileged to be granted this
great favor
With sincere gratitude for your kindly
interest and humbly soliciting your
good prayers Father Iam
Sincerely yours inJ
Mother Mary de Pazzi
