Letter expressing regret to Fr. Prior that she missed him while he was in Dublin. She had wished to speak to him on a matter of conscience.

My dear Father Prior,
There is many thanks for your note. You know I shall be always only too happy to see you, but I do not expect you to come to see me each time you are up, unless I can do anything for you.
Last time, I fear it was this reason why I was very anxious to meet you. I had something (a matter of conscience) on which I wanted to ask your advice. So when I got no ring from you to say you were in town, I rang up myself on Tuesday to hear you had flown. So I wrote of then ito Fr. Kelly and got an answer on Thursday, so all was well.
I miss Dom David more than I can say. He was always, so helpful. I have come to the conclusion now that he has gone, and Fr. Kelly so far away. It is better for me to seek a good confessor in Dublin. Things crop up so often, especially now in my peculiar circumstances, that need advice.
May I ask you please to say Mass on the 3rd Oct, the feast of the Little Flower, and another on Monday the 4th Oct, for the special intentions and spiritual growth of M.M.M. and Glenstal. 2) for His Excellency the Nuncio’s intentions.
I had also intended, if I met you, to ask you and your Community to pray very specially for M.M.M. during these next few weeks and that we may have a Novitiate House very soon, wherever God wills it.
I am glad Mary Murphy returned to you and hope she will be really helpful to Miss Feeney. May God bless all your work at Glenstal
