 J2/83 (25) Bandon 11/2/'16. ROYAL IRISH FUSILIERS8th (SERVICE) BATTALION. My dearest Mai, I can onlysend you a hasty lineto thank you ever somuch for your longinteresting letter aswe are under ordersfor the Front andmarch next Wednesday, though I shall probably not get away till Friday night with the last regiment. We sail from Southampton and expect to be in France on Saturday. I have sent the Father two letters, giving all particulars, which will reach you in a few days. While I think of it would you mind sending Sr' Anthony some of my letters as I know she would liketo read them. I was greatly amusedby your fight withSr Philomena; as usualyou came off secondbest. In order to preventany more disputes, as Ihave quite enough onmy conscience, I amgoing to say Massfor each of you — onSunday next for thesheep & Monday for thegoat (you can settlewhich is which!) Did you hear that ItaKennedy, the saintly girl I oftenspoke to you about, is entering theColattines at Cork today? Her goingthere is quite a miracle which Iwill tell you some day. I havefour of my spiritual children there now,all little saints and three Colettieneselsewhere, so I shall not want for goodprayers. Au revoir, dearest Mai, andmay our dearest Lord bless youwith His grace and love.
