Muskogee, Oklahoma, November 27, 1928.

. . . . Governor H. C. Brockmeyer has a son, E. C. Brockmeyer, Wash-
ington, D. C., who can give you the information better than I can. I first
met him at Okmulgee in 1882 which was his first visit to the then Indian
Territory. He was representing the M. K. & T. railroad at that time.

. . . . The statement that Father was first to give impetus to the "St.
Louis Movement in Philosophy" is correct. I appreciate your request for
details concerning his life and within the next week or ten days I shall
endeavor to gather these together and forward them to you with pleasure.

Washington, D. C., January 16, 1929.

I lost Father in 1906. He passed away in his eightieth year. He pur-
sued his literary efforts to the end, because of the satisfaction it gave him
to justify his existence by searching for the truth. He was keenly dis-
appointed because of the little interest in philosophy during his life time in
this country, but he was fair enough to account for this on the ground
that the country was young and engaged in "carving civilization out of
wilderness," with little time or inclination for culture.

I am happy to note that Father's second translation of Hegel Logic,
was turned over to the Missouri Historical Society. I made several at-
tempts to have it published, but it was so profound that I could not find
anybody willing to handle it. Father, Dr. William T. Harris, and Dr. Den-
ton J. Snider devoted many years of their lives together in studying Hegel's
and Goethe's works. Father wrote "Letters on Faust" which were pub-
lished in the Journal of the St. Louis Philosophical Society, known as
Doctor Harris' Journal of Speculative Philosophy. Father complained be-
cause of the limitation of the English language when undertaking to trans-
late Hegel's works into English.

P. S. You may obtain the address of Mrs. D. J. Snider (he is dead
now) by writing Mr. William F. Woerner, 800 Times Building, 423 Chest-
nut St., St. Louis, Missouri.
