Hendricken, Father Thomas F., Waterbury, Connecticut, to Bishop Francis P. McFarland of, Hartford, Connecticut, 1868 June 13

 Item
Identifier: CDHT I-1-c

Scope and Contents

Hendricken regrets the trouble he caused the Bishop regarding M. Walsh. He gave him $50 promising to pay all extra expenses during the seminary course. He wrote to the President asking him to advance everything required. The first intimation that he was in Montreal was a telegram for more money which he did not answer except to notify the president and him of the fact. On learning the particulars, Hendricken withdrew his offers of aid. Walsh has written since but Hendricken has not answered. If he has appeared drunk at the gates of the seminary he must take the consequences. The excuses are those of a school boy. Father Kane had warned him. Hendricken says he has caused the Bishop much pain but he thought he was doing dood. He can only ask forgiveness for his mistakes. Walsh's age and experience will suggest some way of satisfying his Boardinghouse keeper for the expenses he has incurred. :: I-1-c A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
