Text Any textual data included in the document So my dear You managed to get to Seton Hill after I left there, just like you, too late. Well nevermind until next vacation. We surely will meet then unless you are on a different retreat from me. I am glad that you had a little visit and indeed, I would be pleased to hear of your being out there often. Did I reply to you about the piece of furniture in Altoona? If not, I would not advise your Mother to look for much here. There are so few stores of that class, and prices keep up accordingly. I have not been in Johnstown since. If I do go, at any time, I shall certainly see your good Mother and Lizzie and will do all I can for them, also not worry about them, they are getting along and will get along. God is good, have confidence in Him. Mother Josephine is still here with me, I shall miss her very much when she leaves. I believe Sister Teresa is now at Seton Hill to take her to Cincinnati. I wish I was going with her, but I cannot at present. How are you getting along with your classes? I hope your schools are good. Kindest regards to Father Devlin. I hope he is well. Should he be in this direction, I hope he will call, and now, my dear, ___ my when you can (not our of time without special permission, according to the Customs) - will you get the children to pray for me? I hope so - and I hope you never forget to pray for yours most Sincerely, Sister Mary Aloysia Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
