From the notes of James Ruddick, SJ, Librarian of the Canisius College Jesuit Community, April 2001


Fr. Rudolph J. Eichorn was born Feb. 11, 1893. He entered the Jesuit order on Aug. 14, 1909 and was ordained to the priesthood in the summer of 1924 (presumably in June).

Father Eichorn apparently left Canisius College in the summer of 1934. He is listed as spending the following year in a parish in Maryland. During the year 1936-7 he is listed as a professor of logic and epistemology at the Jesuit seminary in Spokane, Washington. Sometime during that period he left the Jesuit order. I have not been able to find the date of his departure.
