Dear Friends,

Here I am enclosing a rumor that has been with us for some time: A MSB reunion in TT.

At our redaction desk in Caracas, we have no information on the event but the following emails were received on the subject.

Can anyone from MSB confirm or deny the event, Fr. Cuthbert? Or the organizers help?

Una pregunta, la reunión que se esta planeando para agosto todavía esta planeada o se ha cancelado. Yo estoy haciendo planes para poder ir pero necesito saber la fecha con seguridad para poder ponerlo en el calendario. Según tengo entendido es para agosto desde el 15 al 17, es eso verdad o como es la cosa. Por favor si tienes alguna información, me la mandas

Bable fish translation:
A question, the reunion that is being planned for August is still being planned or has been cancelled? I am making plans to be able to go but I need to know the date for sure to be able to put it in my calendar. As I have understood it is for August from the 15 to 17, is this true or how is the thing? Please if you have some information, send it to me.

Caracas, 28 of June 2003.

Dear Salvador,
How is life keeping you? Here I am answering your email that you sent some time ago.
I do not know for sure of any class reunion, but it is in the air, but nobody is willing to send an invitation. So I believe it is a reunion of old boys that do not have a computer at home or in their business!!! The invitations must have been and are sent and confirmed by telephone or personal contact.
Thank you for the information on Anthony Johnson. I have passed it on to Don so that he may lead the future of the WEB page.
How about the photos? Send me one at least to get back on track.
God Bless
Ladislao

Dear Ladislao,
In speaking with Joe Azar yesterday, he told me that he had heard from Fr. Cuthbert at MSB that there was to be an Old Boys Reunion at the Mount between August 14-15, 2003. I do not know anything about this, apart from this telephone notification, but you might want to check it out and alert everyone, if it is in fact happening.

Dear Fr. Cuthbert,

I shall be visiting Trinidad between July 30th and August 13th for my niece's wedding and I hope to be able to see you while I'm there.
I hope you're keeping well, and getting holier by the hour.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Dear Joe,

Thanks for the info.

Best regards to all,
Nigel Boos

Brian:
I've copied Vernon and some other Mount boys here. You may want to contact some of them before your trip. Perhaps they can give you a few leads and names of others you may want to visit during your trip.
Don.

Christian & Donald, first thanks for the good jokes and please keep them coming; since I need all the humor I can get to keep me going. The reason for this message is to request yr help with a few communication favors.
Please have Mom give you Sandra Goddard´s (De Lima) e-mail address; since I may be going to Trinidad at the end of the month and I may want to say hello to her family there (Vernon, Junior and their mother) if time permits and which hotels are available (Queens Park, etc). Is Hugh Henderson there and would Donald know!!??
My e-mail address: goddardbrian@hotmail.com
Thanks and all the best to all, los quiero mucho,
Brian

QUIZ 3
I am enclosing a photo of a cross, where was it located?

According to the school building in construction the photo is from 1946. This would mean that the school building was not inhabited until 1948 or there abouts?? Can anyone remember?

God Bless

Ladislao
