Dear Pitassi: -
I have your letter relating designs
for the medalions Clarksburg hospital
windows.
As I spoke to Sr. deSales they were
to be something different from the stock
design emblems. The following list
would be on the line of what is
wanted depicting the life of the Blessed Virgin
Rear 1 Immaculate Conception
2 Purification
3 Annunciation
4 Visitation
5 Nativity of Our Lord
6 Flight into Egypt (St. Joseph)
7 Presentation in the temple
8 Death of St Joseph
9 Pelican
Sanctuary 10 Chalice & Host
[page 2]
I hope you will be able to make
up some simple medalions which
will show the personage as outlined.
I have another big hospital job
at Columbia S.C. so there seems
to be no real rest.
Best Wishes
J Michael OSBTranscriber
