ARCHBISHOPRIC OF BALTIMORE.
Baltimore, June 24, 1884.
Dear Father Neale :
I am glad to learn that you are preparing for publication a new edition of that excellent work, "Short Points for Mental Prayer. " This precious book was originally written in 1639, and was used by Challoner, Walmsly, and other Confessors of the Faith in times of persecution. I hope the volume will have a large sale, not only among your own flock in St. Mary's County, but throughout the country.
Believe me,
Yours faithfully in Christ,
+ JAMES GIBBONS,
Archbishop of Baltimore
