Dear Harry,

Ha! Another Peter! Well, actually, two of them.

I found them as I was writing in my last letter about the catechism and Google-searched for further information.

This one was Saint Peter Canisius, who became a Jesuit under the aegis of yet another Peter, Peter Faber, one of the founders of the Society of Jesus in the mid-16th century.

Fascinating! These Peters keep cropping up all over.

In amazement, your own son,

Peter
