I am sure Father Louis would have taken the proper
channels in getting permission to have lUnch with

me — the reason for the lunch was to talk over

a collaboration of his DOBMS and my music. Also,

I am certain that he would have secured permission
from the proper channels to meet Eileen Farrell

as it it is my understanding ( and lmay be wrong

in this) that women are not allowed in the monastery.
Doubtless he would have secured permission to meet
her with me in the Our Lady of Gethsemani book store
or perhaps on the grounis outside.
