Corby, C.S.C., Father William, Watertown, Wisconsin, to James F. Edwards, 1889 September 12

Corby is now nicely fixed. He has an excellent house keeper. He little expected after writing letters all vacation to parents and students that he would again be pastor of St. Bernard's. The enclosed letter shows that those to whom Corby wrote formed some regard for him. He received many letters expressing regrets. Corby is happy here but must confess there is no place like Notre Dame. He labored many years to build Notre Dame and feels that it should be his home.
