P152/4 The Presbytery,
Dockhead,
Bermondsey, S. E. July 4. 1916 My dear Child God will bless you
and yours for all you are
doing for this dear Soul. The
Cardinal sent for me last
Evening and gave me full
faculties to deal with Sir
Roger. So I wrote to Fr Carey
last night to get Sir Roger
to ask for permission for me
to see him alone on spiritual
matters as often as is necessary.
I mean to see him daily
As soon as the permission comes all will be well.
And bless God who has
chosen you to be his Instrument
in bringing peace to this dear
2
soul and joy to the
millions who are praying
for him, all over the
world. And Gavan has
done his share well. And
pray for me that I may
do my share faithfully
and well. Your disappointing
visit was the Cross to
sanctify the work.
With an affectionate
and grateful blessing
to you, Gavan & the Children.
Ever yours Sincerely
E.F. Murnane
