Pendleton thanks Leonardos for the Christmas greetings in his last letter, and he returns the sentiment to Leonardos and the Rio society. Pendleton is glad to be able to contact Leonardos again; When his last two letters were returned unopened, he thought Leonardos must have moved away. Pendleton reports that Church matters are moving slowly in the US due to the effects of the Depression, though there are some signs of recovery.
