Apparently you have not received any of my letters from Warsaw. I mailed the first one on August 5 1 on the very day I came back to Warsaw; the second one on the next day which was August 6 was very long, containing a detailed description of my trip; 2 and the third was mailed on August 9 -10. 3 A week has passed since I’ve returned to Warsaw and I still haven’t been able to get in touch with you, or with Rev. Sekowski. I am wait- ing for news like a parasol mushroom waits for rain. Therefore, I was very happy when I received a letter from you although it did not con- tain what I was waiting for. I sent letters to Father Sekowski every- where I could. I found out from Rev. Draugelis 4 that he is at Druskienniki undergoing treatment. Here is his address in case you need it: Druskienniki Post Office, Grodno Province, House of Mr. Andrzykowicz. Of course, I wrote to him right away, but I have not yet received any answer. I asked him at least to send a cable confirm- ing receipt of my letter so that I could write more extensive informa- tion to him. I didn’t receive your letter in Rome. I had probably already left before it arrived, so I don’t know what you were talking about with Naujokas. 5 1 Skipped here. 2 See Document 19. 3 The letter of August 11, 1909; it was omitted. 4 Draugelis, Vladas (1880-1940), ordained as priest in 1903. In 1922 he joined the Congregation of Marian Fathers. 5 Narjauskas (Narjowski, Naujokas), Jurgis (1876-1943), studied in Sejny and Rome where he received his doctorate in law at the Gregorianum. He worked at the consistory and the seminary in Sejny. During 1919-1922, he was the unofficial representative of Lithuania at the Holy See.
