The Rev. William Logan, S.J., papers, circa 1845-1850.

The Logan papers consist largely of autograph manuscript sermons. Most are probably by Father William Logan, though some appear to be in hands other than his. Little of the material is dated or signed, a few having notations in pencil of 'Norwich' or 'New London' and the date of 1849 or 1850. Among the sermons are several manuscript addresses, including one apparently given before a sodality of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and another on the Gracchi, probably prepared for presentation to a debating society.
