Correspondence, 1872-1962 (bulk 1942-1949)
- Scope and content:
-
Contains handwritten notes and letters, typed letters, memoranda, and telegrams. Arranged in chronological order primarily by year and month. Correspondence between 1943 and 1949 has been categorized as either personal or official. Before 1943 and after 1949, the official and personal correspondence is filed together. At the time of processing, the papers were already organized in this manner. A few folders have been divided by correspondent or topic of correspondence.
Condolences sent after Eichelberger's death are included at the end of the series. One envelope of alphabetized file slips compiled by Rare Book, Manuscript, and Special Collections Library staff indexes letters in the Correspondence Series. The envelope is filed in the Information Folder in the Collection Inventory Drawer.
