 27 December 1917 Dear FrProvincial— Very many thanks indeed for Xmas Card which arrived in good time. I had a most consoling Xmas as all my boys were free to get to Confession &Holy Communion & they came in parties to the three Masses. We had to dig our church & cover it with bags etc —most of the men were in the open under a very hard frosty wind & although the ground was covered with frozen snow they knelt all during Mass, and sang the Adeste & other hymns magnificently. The weather still continues very hard & difficult for travelling still all parties are sticking it very well. Goodbye Father Provincial with best wishes for New Year Your obedient child Jack Fitzgibbon SJ P.T.O. I sent Fr Farley note re Masses for last month but we were notified that that days mail was mislaid? The number I said was 15. Would you mind letting him know please J.F.G.
