Dr. Albert J. Dryer TEL. UB 1151 11 KENYON STREET. FAIRFIELD. New South Wales, .....16th. January, 1952. Reverend and Dear Father, I have read the copy of your "Angelic Shepherd" which you sent me a few days ago. It reveals a personality greater and more outstanding than I had even realised. May I say, Father, that I believe you have done great service to the appreciation of a supreme personality, to the Church and to the non-Communist world generally. A money order for 10/- is enclosed to cover the cost of the copy sent. With regard to distribution in Australia, I have brought the book to the notice of Messrs. Pellegrini & Co. Pty. Ltd., 543 George St., Sydney, the largest Catholic booksellers in this country. You may expect an early communication from them. Very respectfully and sincerely, Rev. Father Senan, O.F.M., Cap., Capuchin Annual Office, Baile-Atha-Cliath.

Just once said I had a lot of "killarresq freuch" into my writing. When I had finished Joe's book a fortnight ago I was thinking how much more of it his writing has than mine. Good luck to him. I four took a great deal of pain about the choosing of photographs for the article. They are a beautiful selection. And even were right in thinking that Monroe Arianni would not forget me. The invitation for Wednesday evening came this morning. The only reason is that I had a date with a girl friend in the tea- room at the Screate! And I'd have to ask her to let me come early or change the day altogether. Tom.
