Detailed description: Note requesting the school prospectus for a friend. TEXT Dear Father Prior, This is just a hurried line to ask you to send me a few prospectuses of Glenstal School when you next write. A married schoolgirl friend of mine has two boys at school at Ampleforth the 3rd is at Wicklow and will probably leave this summer. She spoke to me of Glenstal but understood it was a preparatory school. I understand they are considering sending this boy to an Irish school. I shall be seeing her again on Tuesday afternoon; she is to come and see me. I wonder, will it be Dublin or Galway that will see you next week? Has Father John heard anything more from Clerys? It is such a long time ago, they find it hard to trace it. Mother returned the steamer with a letter from Dom Columba for an order of ten cups. If he has heard nothing more from them, I shall arrange for it to be deducted from the bill and settle things up with them. Remember me to all. yours in Jesus, Sr. Mary
