Lynch, Madame Baptiste

Description:

Madame Baptiste writes to Bishop Patrick Lynch about news at the Ursuline Convent and academy.

The Ursulines' current location is not tenable because of the proximity of "gross shops" and "beer houses" and they are frequently disturbed by "profane language" and "midnight carousals."
