Dearest [Giaccardo], Today I turn 43 years old. So please pray that I may spend well what little remains, having spent the past years poorly… Things are fine here, with a few small crosses to bear—nothing significant. Is everything going well over there? Here, just a mild case of the flu. With deepest affection, pray that I may be converted. I bless you. (Correspondence, Alba, 1927)
