DeVeuster, SS.CC., Father Joseph Damien, Kalawao, Molokai, Hawaiian Islands, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C. and Charles Warren Stoddard, Notre Dame, Indiana, 1886 March 30

 Item — Box: CHUD 9
Identifier: CHUD X-3-b

Scope and Contents

Damien sends Stoddard and Hudson a copy of the report which was requested by the President of the Board of Health. It will give them a clear idea of the inside affairs of the leper settlement; they are free to use it for publication. Damien thanks Hudson for the continuance of the Ave Maria as well as the two copies of "Lepers of Molokai". So far Damien has been able to continue his priestly duties, but for how long only God knows since the disease is slowly but surely progressing. He wrote to Vangiezen but received no answer and he does not know what became of the negatives. :: X-3-b A.L.S. 1p. 4to.
