Geschiedenis
Michael Hodder writes from Newark, New Jersey. He hitchhiked to Gethsemani to visit Merton, but had not cleared it before coming, so he was not allowed to visit him. Hodder was claiming conscientious objector (C.O.) status but was drafted for Vietnam. Merton wrote a letter on his behalf to his draft board. He seems to have been in contact with Tom Cornell from the Catholic Peace Fellowship. He was a member of Students for a Democratic Society (S.D.S.) in Newark.
