[718] On the day selected for the departure of the Missioners I intend to confer with my beloved Co-operators in the Sanctuary of Mary Help of Christians, and while I now invite you, I cannot help begging you to have the goodness to search amongst your acquaintances and friends, whoever might desire to concur with his mite to this work of humanity and faith..

 Again begging Your Grace to excuse my long delay and renewing my best thanks for your gracious benevolence while I implore your pastoral Benediction.
