Summary
Thanking him for making time to give Father Yazawa a "pleasurable and profitable" visit; hoping that "there is more hope for the spread of our Society in Japan (and possibly in Korea) than in any area of the present West", as "the young and very small Japanese Church appears to hold unequivocally to the Catholic Faith in a way not always found... in Western Anglicanism"; thanking him for "the receipted bill for the hotel" but expressing disappointment that Cahoon will not attend Chapter this year; promising a new pamphlet to be published; describing the Chapter subject as "Evangelism" among various groups; asking in an autograph addition where Ed Seldon [Edwin Seldon, 1917-1984?] is.
