Description

Correspondence, reports, and a scrapbook of a Lutheran clergyman. The correspondence and reports concern chiefly the activities of the board of publications of the United Norwegian Lutheran Church of America, of which Glesne was a member. The clippings in the scrapbook are chiefly from "Norden" and "Amerika" and concern the controversies between the two newspapers regarding Ragnar M. J. Monrad at Luther College, the anti-Missourian movement within the Norwegian Synod, and politics in Wisconsin. The scrapbook contains letters and articles by Gisle Bothne, John N. Kildahl, Laur. Larsen, Ragnar M. J. Monrad, Herman A. Preus, and L. A. Stenholt.
