1.   1967/December/17 HLS To Merton Having some idea of what your mail may be like I thank you if you are even beginning to read this  N.C.R. article "Crisis in Monasticism Hits American Trappists" / asks how Merton reacts to claim that contemplative orders have failed  details
2.   1967/December/23 TL[c] From Merton Just a quick response. Colman McCarthy's article was extremely slanted, I thought, and I got  thought his words got slanted / states some problems with Trappist life but thinks some true contemplatives are produced and McCarthy was off base  details
