Notes2003.015.0001

Cataloguer’s note: The translator’s four notes are below. They are on the two paper copies of the translation and explain the text summary and formatting. Users are referred to them because the text in this record is not formatted, i.e. no italics. Also the photo and illustration captions are not translated. Also the George B. Steil in text may actually be George H. Steil, Mayor of Hoboken, 1906-1910.

1. Translator’s note: This English version of Die Deutsche Seemannsmission im Hafen von New York 1907-2001 by Herbert Patzelt (Munich, n.d.) was prepared for the Hoboken Historical Museum by Beth Jackson Berman.

2. Translator’s note: Throughout this document, italicized text represents a summary, rather than a translation, of the original.

3. Translator’s note: Only the literal sense of Brückner’s poem has been translated; no attempt has been made to preserve its poetic qualities. This applies equally to the other poems by Brückner in this document.

4. Translator’s note: Pastor Brückner took his own life. Author Patzelt cites in a footnote a letter dated March 13, 1957 that he received from Director Johannes Wolff of St. Stephan’s in Hannover: ”In the face of such an event, we will not pass judgment, but think instead of what the Apostle John wrote in his first letter, Chapter 3, Verses 19-21.”
