Letters in Exchange
by Kathy H. Culmer, D. Min.
"Ever since my husband shared them with me, I have been fascinated with some old letters that he let me read. The letters written in 1935 and 1936, now nearly a century ago, were exchanged between Bishop Clinton S. Quin and the Rev. John E. Culmer, who at that time was priest at St. Agnes, in Miami, FL, and who later became Archdeacon of South Florida."
