This is a file in the correspondence of Thomas Merton under the heading: "Donnelly, Sally".
Merton wrote the foreword to Sally Donnelly's master's thesis at Smith College entitled "Marcel and Buddha : a metaphysics of enlightenment." This later became Merton's essay entitled "Nirvana," which was included in his book Zen and the Birds of Appetite. Merton's friend and Smith professor Amiya Chakravarty sent it to Merton.
