In referring to \n         Louis Napoleon Bonaparteshe states, \"I am\n         glad the Austrians are getting a lesson, but it makes me\n         sadder to think of the widows and orphans created by the last\n         battle.\" \n         Mary Randolphwrites \n         Martha Burkeon February 22, 1863, saying\n         that Mrs. Lesley has tried stimulants for her headache, and\n         indicating that the \n         Lesley familyis allopathic in its medical\n         ideas. She refers to anti-Union sentiment in \n         Boston, saying that \" \n         Henry Ward Beecheris very caustic and\n         shows his usual talent in some remarks he made on the same\n         subject.\" A letter from \n         Mary Randolphto \n         Martha Burkeon July 17, 1863, mentions\n         summer (draft) riots in \n         New York City, and sends a clipping, \"A\n         Southern View of Secession,\" a fraudulent anti-Confederate\n         speech [said to be] by \n         Alexander Hamilton Stephens(1812-1883) of\n         Georgia. On March 9, 1867, \n         Martha Burke, who lives in \n         Alexandriawith her husband, writes to her\n         aunts \n         Mary Randolphand \n         Cornelia Randolphabout the \"Negro\"\n         candidate for mayor, and her fear of the danger of \"wiley\"\n         politicians using the \"Negro\" vote.

The \n         Burke familycorrespondence drops off until\n         the late 1920s with the letters of \n         Fanny M. Burke. Her letter to a Mr.\n         Wingfield on January 11, 1923, shows her interest in \n         Burke familygenealogy and includes a\n         drawing of the \n         Burke familycoat-of-arms. In a February 11,\n         1923, letter to \n         Ellen [Coolidge], she says she is\n         furnishing copies of these coats-of-arms for $5 each, and\n         attempts to defend a controversial chapter of her nation's and\n         family's history-- \n         Nicholas P. Trist's decision to make a\n         treaty with \n         Mexicoto end the Mexican War. In her July\n         27, 1927 letter to her niece, she refutes the claim that \n         Thomas Jeffersondid not belong to a\n         church. On September 1, 1927, she writes to Mr. \n         H.

There are two undated letters from \n         Archibald Cary Coolidgeto her when she\n         was studying art in \n         Europeas a young lady, encouraging her to\n         study at \n         Paris.","The letters of \n         Thomas Jefferson Tristdate from\n         1840-1886, and n.d. The letters from 1840 through 1846 pertain\n         to his sojourn at school in \n         Philadelphia. A letter dated August 28,\n         1840, to his sister, \n         Martha Jefferson Trist, first mentions\n         his schooling and his apparent longing for family. \n         Thomas Jefferson Tristmentions that he\n         would like to visit his father, \n         Nicholas P. Trist, in \n         Havana, Cuba, where he is stationed. On\n         February 10, 1842, he writes to \n         Martha Jeferson Tristacknowledging\n         receipt of two gifts from his parents, \n         Adventures of John Smithand \n         Robinson Crusoe, and mentions that he still\n         has \n         Life of Franklin. In a October 12, 1843\n         letter, he mentions his interest in Napoleonic military\n         operations, preferring the French army to the English and\n         Prussian. An August 22, 1844 letter to \n         Martha Jefferson Tristshows the young\n         man's interest in politics, \"I am for \n         [James K.] Polk, \n         Dallas, \n         Texasand \n         Oregon. \" His letter of November 6, 1845\n         reveals that he is taking drawing lessons from Mr. Holmes. He\n         mentions receiving \n         Plutarch's \n         Livesand a $2 1/2 gold piece for Christmas.\n         In his February 12, 1846 letter to his sister he mentions he\n         has been given an autographed picture of Gen. \n         [Zachary[ Taylor. On May 8, 1946, \n         Thomas Jefferson Tristwrites to his\n         father, requesting a \"port-folio\" for his drawings. In a\n         January 12, 1849 letter to his sister, we learn that \n         Thomas Jefferson Trist's interest in art\n         continues and that he is studying drawing under Mr. Aime at [ \n         Bohmon's]. \n         Thomas Jefferson Trist's multivaried\n         interests continue in his later years. Writing to his sister\n         on April 2, 1876, he mentions that he took a cold after\n         delivering a lecture before a literary association entitled \n         \"Hans Christian Anderson.\"He also writes her on\n         November 27, 1886 saying that he has no intention of parting\n         with his \n         [John] Trumbull[portrait of \n         Thomas Jefferson?], and hoping that it\n         will always be in the possession of \n         Thomas Jefferson's descendents. The \n         Coolidge familyhas the original Stuart\n         profile, and \n         Thomas Jefferson Tristhas a photograph of\n         it as well as a photograph of the \n         Thomas Sullyportrait, the last one taken\n         of \n         Thomas Jefferson.","The \n         Trist familycorrespondence dates from 1835\n         to 1874, and pertain to the \n         Trists family's social world and to family\n         difficulties. \n         Virginia Jefferson Randolph Trist, the\n         wife of \n         Nicholas P.

Trist.","The letters of the \n         Trist familyand \n         Burke familydate from 1864 to 18[80]. \n         Martha Burkeshows a concern for the\n         health of her child, as evidenced in a letter to her father,\n         November 12, 1862, where she is concerned over \n         Fanny Burke's continued high fever. The\n         Civil War is discussed throughout several letters. On June 14,\n         1863, \n         Virginia Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burkeand tells her of fighting in \n         Pennsylvania, and, on four days later,\n         mentioning that the possibility of a rebel attack on \n         Harrisburghas come to naught. A few weeks\n         later, \n         Nicholas Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burketo say that the rebel cause\n         is hopeless, that \n         Vicksburghad fallen to \"Unconditional\n         Surrender\" \n         Ulysses S. Grant, and the Union advances\n         are progressing well. On August 15, 1863, \n         Nicholas Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burkequoting from the \n         London Times, \"the only thing now that\n         can protract the [ ] rebellion is Copperheadism. There is also\n         an undated letter, containing another reference to northern\n         Copperheadism. In a letter dated only \"1863,\" \n         Virginia Tristtells \n         Martha Burkeabout a visit with \n         Bennett Taylorwho had been wounded and\n         taken prisoner at \n         Gettysburg; and showing her\n         anti-Confederate sentiment: \" \n         Jefferson Davis' cruel, savage policy\n         calls for retaliatory measures on the part of our government.\"\n         In a letter of January 29, 1864, to his daughter, \n         Nicholas Tristdiscusses a theory\n         disallowing the justification of treason (secession). \n         Virginia Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burkeon February 7, 1864, saying\n         that she has heard that the \"freed-man\" villages at \n         Arlingtonand elsewhere were becoming\n         intelligence offices for their neighbors. \n         Nicholas Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burkeon February 8, 1864,\n         mentioning that \n         Mobilehad been captured. In a letter\n         dated April 9, 1872, \n         Nicholas Tristanswers a request from \n         Edmund Burke. He had been asked, as a\n         reminiscence, what he felt about the Wilmot Proviso. He claims\n         that he could not have voted for it as it forbade slavery in a\n         state after it became such, yet what state--he says--would\n         have been inane enough to establish slavery if it was kept out\n         when the state was a territory; and, says that he would have\n         choosen the Wilmot Proviso over \"Calhounism.\"","Miscellaneous correspondence dates from 1833 to 1879, and\n         n.d. Several of these were written by \n         Ellen Wayles Randolph Coolidge. In a\n         letter dated January 27, a copy made by \n         Ellen Coolidge, who also wrote the\n         original dated 1833/34, \n         Ellen Coolidgeexplains that \n         Thomas Jeffersondied as he had lived, a\n         \"Christian philosopher,\" and that the Gospels were the basis\n         of his ideas. A copy of a letter written by \n         Ellen Coolidgeto her brother \n         Benjamin Randolphon February 6, 1861\n         (copy made by \n         Martha Burkeon December 3, 1897) mentions\n         that the \"idea of civil war makes all the blood in my body run\n         cold.\" She understands the South's complaint, but says the\n         Union is \"too sacred\" to be cast aside; and, that since the\n         states of the upper South are not dominated by cotton, \n         Virginiaand other border states will be\n         out of place in a \n         Confederate States of America. \n         Ellen Coolidegeclaims to be a true\n         Southern woman, but loves the Union and the stars and stripes\n         \"which are the only things around which all Americans can\n         rally.\" There is a copy made by \n         Martha Burkeon November 30, 1897 of a\n         letter from July 13, [ ] written by \n         Ellen Coolidgeto \n         Elizabeth Wormley, which shows that her\n         affection for southern friends has been strengthened, and her\n         fear of \n         Boston's hatred of the South. She writes\n         \"I never approved of secession. But I am a daughter of the\n         South,\" saying she wears the horrors of the (Civil) War like a\n         penitent's iron belt. She avoids newspapers-- \"those purveyors\n         of falsehood, hatred, malice.\"","MISCELLANEOUS","The architectural drawings are chiefly undated.

He is eulogized as \"a\n         faithful teacher, a man of high culture, intelligence,\n         refinement and moral worth, and a true Christian, in his daily\n         walk and deportment.\" There is also a copy of the inscription\n         on the desk (identical to the one on which \n         Thomas Jeffersonwrote the Declaration) \n         Thomas Jeffersongave to \n         Joseph Coolidgewho married his\n         granddaughter \n         Ellen Wayles Randolph: \"Politics will\n         give imaginary value to this relic for its association with\n         the Declaration [of Independence].\" There is also an undated\n         note from \n         H.

Trist's involvement with the\n         treaty to end the Mexican War and later when Trist's deserved\n         pension was held up partly due to bad feeling created by his\n         action. Some of the clippings give historical and anecdotal\n         information on the founding fathers. Other articles pertain to\n         Thomas Jefferson's descendents, and \n         Monticello, including pleas for the\n         saving of the latter.

In referring to \n         Louis Napoleon Bonaparteshe states, \"I am\n         glad the Austrians are getting a lesson, but it makes me\n         sadder to think of the widows and orphans created by the last\n         battle.\" \n         Mary Randolphwrites \n         Martha Burkeon February 22, 1863, saying\n         that Mrs. Lesley has tried stimulants for her headache, and\n         indicating that the \n         Lesley familyis allopathic in its medical\n         ideas. She refers to anti-Union sentiment in \n         Boston, saying that \" \n         Henry Ward Beecheris very caustic and\n         shows his usual talent in some remarks he made on the same\n         subject.\" A letter from \n         Mary Randolphto \n         Martha Burkeon July 17, 1863, mentions\n         summer (draft) riots in \n         New York City, and sends a clipping, \"A\n         Southern View of Secession,\" a fraudulent anti-Confederate\n         speech [said to be] by \n         Alexander Hamilton Stephens(1812-1883) of\n         Georgia. On March 9, 1867, \n         Martha Burke, who lives in \n         Alexandriawith her husband, writes to her\n         aunts \n         Mary Randolphand \n         Cornelia Randolphabout the \"Negro\"\n         candidate for mayor, and her fear of the danger of \"wiley\"\n         politicians using the \"Negro\" vote. In a May 7, 1895 letter, \n         Martha Burkewrites to \n         Mary Randolphon the truth of \n         Frank Leslie's prediction of the demise\n         of the \n         Confederate States of America.

The \n         Burke familycorrespondence drops off until\n         the late 1920s with the letters of \n         Fanny M. Burke. Her letter to a Mr.\n         Wingfield on January 11, 1923, shows her interest in \n         Burke familygenealogy and includes a\n         drawing of the \n         Burke familycoat-of-arms. In a February 11,\n         1923, letter to \n         Ellen [Coolidge], she says she is\n         furnishing copies of these coats-of-arms for $5 each, and\n         attempts to defend a controversial chapter of her nation's and\n         family's history-- \n         Nicholas P. Trist's decision to make a\n         treaty with \n         Mexicoto end the Mexican War. In her July\n         27, 1927 letter to her niece, she refutes the claim that \n         Thomas Jeffersondid not belong to a\n         church. On September 1, 1927, she writes to Mr. \n         H.

The letters from 1840 through 1846 pertain\n         to his sojourn at school in \n         Philadelphia. A letter dated August 28,\n         1840, to his sister, \n         Martha Jefferson Trist, first mentions\n         his schooling and his apparent longing for family. \n         Thomas Jefferson Tristmentions that he\n         would like to visit his father, \n         Nicholas P. Trist, in \n         Havana, Cuba, where he is stationed. On\n         February 10, 1842, he writes to \n         Martha Jeferson Tristacknowledging\n         receipt of two gifts from his parents, \n         Adventures of John Smithand \n         Robinson Crusoe, and mentions that he still\n         has \n         Life of Franklin. In a October 12, 1843\n         letter, he mentions his interest in Napoleonic military\n         operations, preferring the French army to the English and\n         Prussian. An August 22, 1844 letter to \n         Martha Jefferson Tristshows the young\n         man's interest in politics, \"I am for \n         [James K.] Polk, \n         Dallas, \n         Texasand \n         Oregon. \" His letter of November 6, 1845\n         reveals that he is taking drawing lessons from Mr. Holmes. He\n         mentions receiving \n         Plutarch's \n         Livesand a $2 1/2 gold piece for Christmas.\n         In his February 12, 1846 letter to his sister he mentions he\n         has been given an autographed picture of Gen. \n         [Zachary[ Taylor.

In a\n         January 12, 1849 letter to his sister, we learn that \n         Thomas Jefferson Trist's interest in art\n         continues and that he is studying drawing under Mr. Aime at [ \n         Bohmon's]. \n         Thomas Jefferson Trist's multivaried\n         interests continue in his later years. Writing to his sister\n         on April 2, 1876, he mentions that he took a cold after\n         delivering a lecture before a literary association entitled \n         \"Hans Christian Anderson.\"He also writes her on\n         November 27, 1886 saying that he has no intention of parting\n         with his \n         [John] Trumbull[portrait of \n         Thomas Jefferson?], and hoping that it\n         will always be in the possession of \n         Thomas Jefferson's descendents. The \n         Coolidge familyhas the original Stuart\n         profile, and \n         Thomas Jefferson Tristhas a photograph of\n         it as well as a photograph of the \n         Thomas Sullyportrait, the last one taken\n         of \n         Thomas Jefferson.","The \n         Trist familycorrespondence dates from 1835\n         to 1874, and pertain to the \n         Trists family's social world and to family\n         difficulties. \n         Virginia Jefferson Randolph Trist, the\n         wife of \n         Nicholas P.

The\n         Civil War is discussed throughout several letters. On June 14,\n         1863, \n         Virginia Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burkeand tells her of fighting in \n         Pennsylvania, and, on four days later,\n         mentioning that the possibility of a rebel attack on \n         Harrisburghas come to naught. A few weeks\n         later, \n         Nicholas Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burketo say that the rebel cause\n         is hopeless, that \n         Vicksburghad fallen to \"Unconditional\n         Surrender\" \n         Ulysses S.

On August 15, 1863, \n         Nicholas Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burkequoting from the \n         London Times, \"the only thing now that\n         can protract the [ ] rebellion is Copperheadism. There is also\n         an undated letter, containing another reference to northern\n         Copperheadism. In a letter dated only \"1863,\" \n         Virginia Tristtells \n         Martha Burkeabout a visit with \n         Bennett Taylorwho had been wounded and\n         taken prisoner at \n         Gettysburg; and showing her\n         anti-Confederate sentiment: \" \n         Jefferson Davis' cruel, savage policy\n         calls for retaliatory measures on the part of our government.\"\n         In a letter of January 29, 1864, to his daughter, \n         Nicholas Tristdiscusses a theory\n         disallowing the justification of treason (secession). \n         Virginia Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burkeon February 7, 1864, saying\n         that she has heard that the \"freed-man\" villages at \n         Arlingtonand elsewhere were becoming\n         intelligence offices for their neighbors. \n         Nicholas Tristwrites to \n         Martha Burkeon February 8, 1864,\n         mentioning that \n         Mobilehad been captured. In a letter\n         dated April 9, 1872, \n         Nicholas Tristanswers a request from \n         Edmund Burke. He had been asked, as a\n         reminiscence, what he felt about the Wilmot Proviso. He claims\n         that he could not have voted for it as it forbade slavery in a\n         state after it became such, yet what state--he says--would\n         have been inane enough to establish slavery if it was kept out\n         when the state was a territory; and, says that he would have\n         choosen the Wilmot Proviso over \"Calhounism.\"","Miscellaneous correspondence dates from 1833 to 1879, and\n         n.d. Several of these were written by \n         Ellen Wayles Randolph Coolidge. In a\n         letter dated January 27, a copy made by \n         Ellen Coolidge, who also wrote the\n         original dated 1833/34, \n         Ellen Coolidgeexplains that \n         Thomas Jeffersondied as he had lived, a\n         \"Christian philosopher,\" and that the Gospels were the basis\n         of his ideas. A copy of a letter written by \n         Ellen Coolidgeto her brother \n         Benjamin Randolphon February 6, 1861\n         (copy made by \n         Martha Burkeon December 3, 1897) mentions\n         that the \"idea of civil war makes all the blood in my body run\n         cold.\" She understands the South's complaint, but says the\n         Union is \"too sacred\" to be cast aside; and, that since the\n         states of the upper South are not dominated by cotton, \n         Virginiaand other border states will be\n         out of place in a \n         Confederate States of America. \n         Ellen Coolidegeclaims to be a true\n         Southern woman, but loves the Union and the stars and stripes\n         \"which are the only things around which all Americans can\n         rally.\" There is a copy made by \n         Martha Burkeon November 30, 1897 of a\n         letter from July 13, [ ] written by \n         Ellen Coolidgeto \n         Elizabeth Wormley, which shows that her\n         affection for southern friends has been strengthened, and her\n         fear of \n         Boston's hatred of the South. She writes\n         \"I never approved of secession. But I am a daughter of the\n         South,\" saying she wears the horrors of the (Civil) War like a\n         penitent's iron belt. She avoids newspapers-- \"those purveyors\n         of falsehood, hatred, malice.\"","MISCELLANEOUS","The architectural drawings are chiefly undated. There is a\n         drawing entitled the \"Parlor floor at \n         Monticello, \" copied from \n         Thomas Jefferson's original by [M. T. J.\n         B.] on August 5, 1880. There are other drawings, including the\n         plan of the original Jefferson house on \n         Monticellobefore additions. There is also\n         a list of the ten \n         University of Virginiapavilions and the\n         type of column of each and the classical source for each\n         pavilion's styling. A drawing of the ancestral \n         Trist familyhome, \" \n         Tristford, \" in \n         Devonshire, Englandis also included.","Material pertaining to the \n         Jefferson familyand \n         Monticelloconsists of typed lists and\n         transcripts. There is correspondence between \n         Thomas Jeffersonand \n         Joseph Cabellin 1816 on the subject of\n         what flora makes the best live hedge. They discuss\n         experiments, by a Mr. Maine, using Haws as hedges. A modern\n         list of plants, and one flowers, which \n         Thomas Jeffersonhad at \n         Monticello, is present. Also, there are\n         copies of the inventory of the estate of \n         Peter Jeffersonwith an appraisal;\n         although his book collection was small, there are some\n         interesting volumes in it such as \n         Trent's Astronomyand \n         A Secret History of Queen Anne's Ministers.\n         The inventory and appraisal of the estate of \n         Jane JeffersonJr., \n         Thomas Jefferson's sister, deals\n         primarily with the apportionment of slaves. The last will and\n         testament of \n         Jane Jefferson, \n         Peter Jefferson's wife and \n         Thomas Jefferson's mother, deals\n         primarily with this as well. There is also the last will and\n         testament of \n         Peter Jeffersonwith the apportionment of\n         his lands between his sons, \n         Randolph Jeffersonand \n         Thomas Jefferson, and the lands to be\n         held jointly by them.","Miscellaneous folder material dates from 1816 to 1907, and\n         n.d.

From 1856, there is a pamphlet from the \n         Republican partyin support of their\n         presidential candidate \n         John C. Fremontentitled \"The `Sons of\n         Liberty' in 1776, and in 1856.\" It maintains that the\n         descendants of the colonial period \"Sons of Liberty\" ought to\n         oppose the slave owners in the same manner as their noble\n         forefathers opposed the British. Dated October 8, 1858 is a\n         marriage certificate for \n         Thomas Jefferson Tristand \n         Ellen Lymansigned by \n         Thomas Gallaudet, rector of \n         St. Anne's[ ] for deaf-mutes in \n         New York. On June 5, 1890, there is a\n         list of resolutions adopted by the \n         Pennsylvania Institute for Deaf and Dumb,\n         concerning the death of \n         Thomas Jefferson Trist, who was a teacher\n         at the Institute for thirty-five years. He is eulogized as \"a\n         faithful teacher, a man of high culture, intelligence,\n         refinement and moral worth, and a true Christian, in his daily\n         walk and deportment.\" There is also a copy of the inscription\n         on the desk (identical to the one on which \n         Thomas Jeffersonwrote the Declaration) \n         Thomas Jeffersongave to \n         Joseph Coolidgewho married his\n         granddaughter \n         Ellen Wayles Randolph: \"Politics will\n         give imaginary value to this relic for its association with\n         the Declaration [of Independence].\" There is also an undated\n         note from \n         H.

Trist's involvement with the\n         treaty to end the Mexican War and later when Trist's deserved\n         pension was held up partly due to bad feeling created by his\n         action. Some of the clippings give historical and anecdotal\n         information on the founding fathers. Other articles pertain to\n         Thomas Jefferson's descendents, and \n         Monticello, including pleas for the\n         saving of the latter.

JOHN HARTWELL COCKE PAPERS:\n            #5685, #5685-a.","John Hartwell Cocke was born in 1780 in the Tidewater county of Surry, the son of John Hartwell and Elizabeth\n         (Kennon) Cocke. By the age of twenty-one, Cocke was the master of over 5,500 acres of land in Surry and Fluvanna counties. A\n         few years after Cocke married Anne Blaws Barraud (\"Nancy\") of Norfolk, Virginia in 1802, he sold his Surry County holdings\n         and moved to a frame dwelling at Bremo Recess, Fluvanna County, and began work on a finer home, \"Bremo.\" He owned\n         three large plantations along the James River, Bremo Recess, Upper Bremo, and Lower Bremo, each containing over a thousand\n         acres of land. During the War of 1812, Cocke served in the Virginia militia, rising from captain to brigadier general in\n         eighteen months. His first wife, Anne Blaws Barraud Cocke (1785-1816) did not live to see the completion of \"Bremo\" in\n         1820, but Cocke and his second wife, Louisa Maxwell Holmes (m. 1821), lived there until their deaths.","Other milestones in the life of John Hartwell Cocke include his elections as Vice-President of the Virginia Temperance\n         Society in 1830 and as President in 1834; his election as President of the United States Temperance Union in 1836; his\n         membership on the University of Virginia Board of Visitors from its inception as Central College in 1819 until 1852;\n         membership on the Virginia Board of Public Works, 1823-1829; his primary role in the founding of the Agricultural Society\n         of Albemarle in 1817; and service on the James River and Kanawha Canal Company Board of Directors. John Hartwell Cocke\n         was greatly troubled by the issue of slavery, and he concentrated his time and money in promoting the American\n         Colonization Society, and preparing his slaves for gradual emancipation through vocational training and teaching them to\n         read and write.","The papers of the Cocke family of Fluvanna County, Virginia, and related Barraud family, Faulcon family, and\n         other families, consist of ca. 25,000 items, (194 Hollinger boxes, ca. 64.5 linear shelf feet), 1725- 1939, and contains\n         correspondence, legal and financial papers, diaries of John Hartwell Cocke, Louisa Maxwell Holmes Cocke, and Lucy Cocke,\n         minutes of the Board of Visitors of the University ofVirginia, diagrams and sketches concerning the University,\n         bound volumes, sketches and drawings, college and school notes, poetry, orations and speeches, essays, genealogy, and\n         lists pertaining to agriculture, music and other subjects.","Major topics covered by the collection include: the development of agriculture in Virginia, merino sheep, horse\n         breeding and purchases, slavery, the American Colonization Society, temperance movement, other religious and reform\n         groups, book dealers, religion, the War of 1812, the Civil War, public education (including the Bremo Seminary), the\n         founding and development of the University of Virginia and public improvements. The bulk of the papers were generated by\n         General John Hartwell Cocke (1780-1866) and his immediate descendants.","See the \n            \n            University of Virginia Library’s use policy.","English"],"collection_title_tesim":["Cocke Family Papers, 1725-1939"],"collection_ssim":["Cocke Family Papers, 1725-1939"],"level_ssm":["collection"],"level_ssim":["Collection"],"unitid_ssm":["640, etc."],"unitid_tesim":["640, etc."],"repository_ssm":["University of Virginia, Special Collections Dept."],"repository_ssim":["University of Virginia, Special Collections Dept."],"access_terms_ssm":["See the \n            \n            University of Virginia Library’s use policy."],"acqinfo_ssim":["The collection of Cocke family papers grouped under the number #640, etc. is comprised of several different\n            collections of papers that were formerly on loan to the University of Virginia Library, including: #640, #1335,\n            #1431, #1480, #2890, #3604, # 5213, #5680, #6418, and #2433 (except -a, -f, -g, -h, -k, -m, and -p).
