Identifier: CHUD X-2-e

Scope and Contents

He recalls himself to Hudson and hopes he is well. Father Paul Gillen C.S.C. honored Harkins by dining with them. Harkins wanted to ask him about beeswax but Gillen got him so interested in Notre Dame that he forgot. He is interested in the manufacture and sale of beeswax candles and wants to learn about the supply in the western country. A friend of his informed him that northern Indiana was a great place for hives, and Illinois. If Hudson can obtain any information or can name anyone who may be able to help, he would appreciate it. He wants both natural and bleached wax. Enclosed is a clipping of the death of Sister Augustine Harkins. These are excerpts from the Albany N.Y. Daily Paper and the Albany Sunday Times. :: X-2-e A.L.S. 2pp. 8vo.
