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.
General,
Reverend Mother General,
