by your prayers Your Grace which I
humbly ask.

Your Grace my dear Archbishop
After completing the Visitation of Schools
in three Dioceses, I am here for a few
days of quiet you can imagine what
happiness it is for me to be amidst
my own. There was a new joy in
just the ordinary salutation Good-
morning, Mother coming from my
own Sisters.
Before leaving Dublin I had the joy
of hearing the good news that the Minister
of Local Government has approved the
purchase of Edenmore and Mr. Ryan
says we can take possession of the

Mr. Jones assured me that on my return
next Tuesday he will be in a position
to tell me when the repairs can be com-
menced. The realization of my own
unworthiness makes my prayer of
gratitude the more fervent.
Your Grace I am sure that you did
much to give the impetus that af-
firs have taken and I am so deeply
grateful. No day passes without the
spesial mention of your name in my
prayers. I only hope that these are win-
mng help in the indefatigable labour
that you are undertaking for the spread
of our Lords Kingdom.
At the Bank yesterday I made an
application for the loan necessary

Your Grace, my dear Archbishop
I am so sorry that I did not contact
you immediately on my arrival, Please
forgive me. Realizing how full a schedule
you have I fear to make a nuisance of
myself, Yet. I was hoping to see you
if only for a few minutes, your Grace.
Thank you, for the papers your Grace
the proposed loan for Edenmore was
approved by the General Council some
months ago and I am sure that
Mother General must have the Indult
from the Sacred Congregation
I am grateful to you for. your reply to
the Bank Manager. Is it necessary that
I write and ask that the Indult be
forworded to him. That necessity never
wned on me
Ro your Grace I shall never forget that it
was your desire to help the Scandinavian
Missions that prompted you to so gracious-
ly allow us to work in your Archdiocese
Nor shall I ever forget what your kind
interest in these countries spiritual
plight meant to me when I talked
with you. What I have learned since
okes me more keen not only to see
Sisters going there but Religious
priests too. My heart bleeds for the
youth of these countries and were it
not for the fact that I feel I am too
old to master the Northern tongues I would
gladly offer to spend what remains of my
life. Maybe our Lord will count my
desire Sometime maybe I shall have
s opportunity to explain to you at
length some of the awful problems of
the Scandinavian youth.
You will hardly have a minute to give me
to, morrow your Grace.. I am leaving
Thursday at 11:40 by plane for Crickhowell
I regretted not having your blessing as I
began my work this year but I am sure
if you do not find it possible to su me

My dear Reverend Mother General,
I have heard from Reverend Mother
Mary de Pazzi of your kindnes in nominating Superiors for the
two Irish ventures.
This is verry encouraging news.
You need not be worried by the
delay in securing Edenmore. The lady vho owns it insisted on
having arbritration as she was not content with the price. It is a
mere technicality, but it means some delay. The original negotiat¬
ions are not alteted by arbritration.
I am grateful for your very kind
cooperation.
I remain, dear Reverend Mother
Yours sincerely in Christ,
+John C.McQuaid.

Reverend Mother General,

Dear Mother Mary de Pazzi,
I am willing to sanction your adding some
extra private rooms at the Nursing Home, Raheny.
You will be good enough to supply the
plan to the Rt. Rev. Mgr. Fitzpatrick, V.G., 390 Howth Road.
With kind wishes,
I remain,
Yours sincerely in Xto.,
