Barton, Francis W., Peru, Indiana to James F. Edwards, Notre Dame, Indiana, 1899 August 22

Edwards' letter was forwarded to him from Danville. He will take great pleasure in presenting the card to Dr. Coll on his arrival in New York. There are so many students there that he cannot place the doctor. Barton is at the Wabash Employes Hospital as acting assistant house surgeon. It has been a splendid training for him. He met Father Luke Evers in New York and had a pleasant chat. Chassaing is playing in some Regiment band; it seems too bad that he is so well satisfied to take life as it comes. There is a Danville boy going to Notre Dame through Barton's influence; his name is Claude Bundy. He will always have a tender spot in his heart for Notre Dame. :: XI-2-b A.L.S. 4pp.
