It will also be a comfort for your precious souls, to know
that we remember you here at the altar of God. where the daily
remembrance of that all-glorious sacrifice on Calvary, for you
all, is not neglected.
We have daily Mass for you here; and if it be so that it
please the good God to permit you thus to be called to Himself
on Saturday morning, the precious body and blood of our Lord
and Saviour and our Friend will be presented for you before
God, at eight o'clock, on that day--that blood so precious,
that cleanses from all sin. May your last words and thoughts
be Jesus. Rest on Him, who is faithful, and willing and
all-powerful to save. Rest on Him, and on His sacrifice on
that Cross for you, instead of you, and hear Him say, "_To-day
thou shalt be with me in Paradise_." Yet will we remember your
souls constantly at the altar of God, after your departure, as
well as those whom you leave in life.
Farewell! and may Jesus Christ, the Saviour of sinners, save
us all, and give you His last blessing upon earth, and an
eternal continuance of it in heaven.
CAROLINE QUEENSBURY.
This letter enclosed L100. On hearing it read, poor Larkin burst into
tears; the other prisoners also were deeply affected.
