St. John's Abbey Collegeville, Minn. 2023-01-25/474 May 4, 1936 Very Rev. Dom Beda Lebbe, O.S.B. St. Columba's Priory, Glenstal Co. Limerick, Ireland. My dear Dom Beda: In my letter of April 20 I promised to send you copies of several Constitutions for Benedictine Sisters. I sent you three on the second of this month. That is all I can get for you at the present time. The Constitution for the Congregation that I have been trying to form is not yet available. As a matter of fact it is about the same in the Declarations as that of the Congregation of St. Scholastica. I introduced some important changes into the Constitution of the Congregation, but you will hardly need anything for a Congregation at the present time, since I imagine that you are for the present merely trying to establish a single community. With a hearty God bless you and your community, I am Yours fraternally, Alexander Deutsch Abbot.
