Scope and Contents

Brother Ira B. Joseph Dutton requests that Hudson send a copy of January's Ave Maria to R. W. Meyer at Kannakakai, Molokai. Mr. W. said he would like to see Charles Warren Stoddard's "Legend of Lanai". In a previous letter Dutton mentioned that Walter Gibson learned what to do from Father Joseph Damien De Veuster. He gave Gibson dishes and Talulah Hayselden gave him a lesson in cooking. Hayselden's husband was secretary of the Board of Health, Foreign Minister and Premier. He gave De Veuster the buggy that Stoddard rode in when at Molokai. He asked Bishop Hermann Koeckemann to send Harper to him. Harper sends a picture of a leper girl in Kalaupapa taken by Doctor Godwyn Swift. She asks that her weekly Ave Maria be sent to Father Gregory de Groote, O.S.B., at Oklahoma City. Harper and her sister are staying at a family hotel since the lease on their house expires May 1. Their sea-side house will open June 1. :: X-3-k A.L.S. 8pp. 16mo. 10
