Jenkins, Father Thomas J., Hardinsburg, Kentucky, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C., Notre Dame, Indiana, 1878 November 26
Scope and Contents
Jenkins is very grateful to Hudson for the two kind letters he sent to him and the receipt of the two volumes of Canon Law with instructions to review them for the Ave Maria overwhelmed him. That Hudson would entrust such an important task to a writer as inexperienced as Jenkins considers himself to be seems incredible. However he did not have sufficient modesty to refuse this request so he has already begun writing the revier. He will send it in a few days with the hope that Hudson will give it a through revision before publishing it. Jenkins sends the reply to has query requesting catalogues of all the works of the Canon that Schmid has translated into English. A careful hunt uncovered but two books entitled "Christmas Eve" both of which were unobtainable. Therefore Jenkins feels that they will have to translate from the original giving Schmid credit where due instead of practicing piracy of his works as others do. He appreciates Hudson's invitation to visit Notre Dame and asks how to get there. He sends Hudson a picture of himself. :: X-2-d A.L.S. 2pp. 12mo.
