• Notes

  from "The Daily Advertiser", 20 Mar 1935 (newspapers.com) NEW ORLEANS, March 20 - Scientist and businessman by profession, bibliophile and scholar by avocation, Herbert Z.E. Perkins, died at the age of 66 at his home yesterday following a long illness. Until his retirement in July 1933, he had served 40 years as chief chemist of the American Sugar Refinery. Possessed of one of the finest libraries in the south, he recently donated a portion of it to the Tulane University Library. Especially admired was his collection of Byzantine architecture. The interior of a home he built ten years ago was modeled on that type of architecture. His widow, the former Miss Sophie Bachman, and a sister, Miss Ethel Perkins, survive.
