Notes:

From “The Oil and Gas Journal”, 16 Apr 1920 (googlebooks.com)
A letter just received in Sarnia from Mrs. Jacob Perkins at Krosno, Galicia, gives some particulars of the death of her husband, a former well known Petrolia oil man. Mr. Perkins was employed in the Galician oil fields before the war, but after the war broke out was taken with his family to Vienna, where they were held prisoners. In November, 1916, following the last retreat of the Russians from the Galician front. Mr. Perkins was taken back to Galicia under military escort to engage in the work of producing oil for Government use. The family was kept in Vienna. He continued working under great difficulties until March, 1917, when he was taken ill with influenza, dying after seven weeks' illness. Mrs. Perkins reached him two weeks before his death, and remained in the country to help wind up his affairs. Galicia is now under Polish jurisdiction. During the years of the war they could not write even to Mexico or the United states when the latter was neutral, owing the the severe censorship; letters were sent byt apparently they did not get outside of Austria. Travel is still difficult in Central Europe and conditions are awful; the people, according to the writer, are fighting one another like mad dogs. She expects to return to America shortly, with her daughter.
