Identifier: CBRH III-3-e

Scope and Contents

Father Welch asks for information on Brownson's classmate at Holy Cross College, James Clarence Bergen . After his graduation in 1852 he want to the Harvard Law school. Assuming that he is a graduate of Georgetown—at that time the graduates of Worcester received their degrees from Georgetown—the Librarian of the Harvard Law School writes to Father Welch to learn something about Bergen for their catalogue. As the Librarian of the Law School has always been very kind, Father Welch would like to give him all the information he can. If Bergen is living, he would like to know where he lives and what he is doing; if he is dead, when, where and how he died. He thinks Brownson will probably remember him too; they met at Georgetown several times during the first year of the War and before at Frederick and at Brownson's father's house in Chelsea. He hopes Brownson's health is good. :: III-3-e A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
