Letter 135

TO LUCIA CISMONDI
About a letter lost - Don Bosio to be consulted on a matter.

Dearest Sister in the charity
of Our Lord and of Mary,

I have received your most welcome letter. It brought me

much joy, with its fresh assurance of your kindness to me. I
assure you that from me you have back what is yours, with
interest. If I am unable to write to you frequently, it is not that I
forget you, believe me, but rather due to additional small
engagements that rob me of all my free time. Relying on your
goodness, I hope you will remain close to me all the time.
I was surprised to hear that you have not received the
paper with the practices for Carnival time. Maybe it was my
mistake: I may have intended to send it but never did so. In
any case, please let me know if you have received a letter
from me in which I mentioned the result of a holy Communion I
offered for you, and in the same letter I had made a brief hint
on the fellow member Ferrari. As far as I can remember, I had
enclosed the paper in that letter.
