Identifier: CDHT I-1-c

Scope and Contents

Hendricken wrote McFarland Wednesday some particulars concerning Father Charles L. Lemagie. One thing is certain, McFarland has done well in suspending him. On Thursday he fell over his stove, tumbled down stairs, and though now sober is lying in bed and refuses to eat. He has just ordered some coffee and asks the sexton to get him a boarding house in the city and is determined to live in Waterbury and do all the harm he can. Father Brady warned him to go where he is not known but he laughed at the advice. Hendricken says he is the most profane man he has ever met with. He at first asked them not to speak to him but Hendricken called this child's play. The sexton is a policeman who does not let him make a noise. He threw books until promised handcuffs. He will leave Monday because Hendricken calls on him every hour and this causes him to capitulate. Father Kane arrived last night but the old man would not look at him. :: I-1-c A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
