V. 听 听New Harmony and CCS Updates

1) 听 听HNH participated in an auction for New Harmony books.

• A manuscript on hymnals compiled by Harmonist member Jacob Neff. It contained 鈥渢ravel songs鈥� documenting the founding of Harmonist settlements in America. Unfortunately, HNH lost out to a private collector. The information was passed along to the buyer, but no answer. There is hope that the buyer would be willing to lend it to us for research and exhibit display purposes.
• A first-edition book published by the Harmony Society in 1826. It contains the results of a prose and poetry competition among members at New harmony. This collection of verses and short essays remains largely untranslated but reveals the spiritual and temporal emotions of a cross-section of ordinary Harmonists. HNH was fortunate to acquire this item. 听
• Exhibition at the Indiana State Historical Society
