Shackelford (1914 Jun 16); the \n Cumberland Sanitorium , \n Lebanon, Tennessee (1916 Jul 3); offer of\n services to the government during World War I (1917 Jun 30-Aug\n 27); warning not to use cocaine with another remedy (1917 Nov\n 8); and a description of her student life by his daughter \n Gladys May in \n Baltimore during World War I (1917 Nov 23,\n n.d.).","The business and legal papers of \n Robert F. Moss (d. 1883), sheriff of \n Louisa County , include: a letter from \n William Gilman to Moss regarding the next\n election to the \n Virginia House of Delegates where, \"I\n trust \n Louisa will be redeemed and that instead\n of negroes and white Radicals I will meet a simon pure\n Virginian delegation from your good old county,\" (1875 Oct\n 25); notification of the escape of an inmate from the \n Central Lunatic Asylum near \n Richmond who was probably headed for \n Louisa (1881 Feb 16); and concerning the\n primary election, \n H.V. Winston asking for support in the\n upcoming election (1880 Jul 1).","John Q. Rhodes was the law partner of \n W.C. Bibb in the 1920's and his business\n and legal papers chiefly pertain to his legal work in \n Louisa County . In 1936, \n Rhodes became director of the \n Division of Motor Vehicles for \n Virginia . He served as a member of the \n House of Delegates from 1930-1934. His\n correspondence contains very little personal material and is\n chiefly concerned with the legal cases he represented. An\n unusual item in the business and legal papers is a prospectus\n of the \n Haile Gold Mines, Inc. (1937 Jul 15).","The personal and political folder contains a booklet of\n admission tickets for delegates to the 1924 \n Democratic National Convention in \n New York and the declaration of \n Rhodes for candidacy with supporting\n papers for the \n House of Delegates from \n Louisa County to \n Carl H. Nolting , Chairman of the \n Louisa County Democratic Committee (1933\n May 9).","Among the papers related to \n Louisa County elections and politics are:\n the \n Louisa Camp Confederate Veterans\n Roll; election returns (n.d.); poll books; used primary\n election ballots for 1905; and voting lists (1895 \u0026 n.d.)\n with separate \"white\" and \"colored\" lists. There is also some\n political material in a folder labelled \"Miscellaneous:\n Political \u0026 Miscellaneous Documents.\"","Businesses represented in this series include: \n Craig Kennels and Game Farm , \n Trevilians, Virginia , all concerning debt\n collection; a lawsuit involving the \n Jackson Telephone and Telegraph Company ; \n The Old Dominion Phonograph Company , \n Roanoke, Virginia , containing an annual\n report (1890) and stock certificates belonging to \n W.E. Bibb ; and the \n Mineral City Mining, Manufacturing, and Land\n Company . The directors of this company were \n R.P. Talley (President), \n W.H.F. Lee (Vice-President), \n W.R. Goodwin (General Manager), \n P.B. Porter (Secretary \u0026 Treasurer,\n replaced by \n A.G. Hill in June 1890), \n W.E. Bibb (Attorney), \n W.O. Smith , \n J.F. Bickers , and \n J.W. Flannagan . Most of the\n correspondence was handled by \n P.B. Porter and then \n A.G. Hill , and was concerned with a new \n C \u0026 O Railroad depot (1890 Apr 11\n \u0026 19), a petition to change the name of the town of \n Tolersville to \n Mineral City (1890 Apr 17), questions\n about the charter, the prospectus of the company, the purchase\n of stock shares, and advertisements concerning the property.\n Other types of papers include: bills \u0026 receipts, financial\n statements, pay rolls, printed material, and a time book (for\n bound volumes pertaining to the \n Mineral City Mining, Manufacturing, and Land\n Company see Boxes 40-42). For a recent discussion of\n the history of \n Mineral and the \n Mineral City Mining, Manufacturing, and Land\n Company see the Louisa County Historical Magazine,\n Spring 1990 Mineral Centennial Issue, Volume 21, No. 1, pages\n 15-27.","Series III: Boyd Smith Papers","The \n Boyd Smith mines were first opened about\n 1886 by \n Boyd Smith , who was also President of the\n Pyrites Mining \u0026 Chemical Company .\n The mines were never as successful as the nearby \n Arminius Mines and much of his business\n and legal papers deal with claims made against \n Boyd Smith and his company, law suits\n against \n Boyd Smith , and attempts to interest\n various mining companies in purchasing his mines in \n Louisa County . There is a fair amount of\n correspondence with \n W.E. Bibb who was his legal representative\n in \n Louisa and who was appointed Special\n Commissioner to sell the \n Pyrites Mining \u0026 Chemical Company in\n November of 1900. These files also contain \n Boyd Smith 's personal business and legal\n papers such as late life insurance payments, bills, and other\n matters. Also present are inventories of the stores and tools\n at the pyrite mines listed for potential buyers of the\n property (1900 August \u0026 October; 1901 Apr) and examples of\n the \n Pyrites Chemical \u0026 Mining\n Company store script (see separate folder).","The folder of family and personal correspondence,\n 1897-1903, contains mainly letters from his son, \n D. Boyd Smith to his father, one from his\n wife [Bliss ?] (1902 May 14), and a photograph of [Bliss ?]\n and Mrs. \n Bibb (1901).","Series IV: William Worth Smith, Jr. Papers","This series consists chiefly of the legal cases handled by \n William Worth Smith, Jr. (1887-?), a \n Virginia State Senator from 1924-1934,\n arranged alphabetically by the name of the claimant. \n William Worth Smith Jr. 's papers are\n concerned predominantly with the collection of debts for his\n clients but they also contain separate folders of a slander\n case, cases of divorce, the purchase of \"Ionia Farm, and law\n suits. \n William Worth Smith Jr. 's correspondence\n folder includes letters of a political nature from \n Claude Swanson , \n Charles C. Carlin , \n Howard W. Smith , and \n A. Willis Robertson . \n William Worth Smith Jr. was born in \n Fauquier County to \n William Worth Smith and \n Lucinda Lewis Smith and was educated at \n Randolph-Macon College and the \n University of Virginia , receiving his law\n degree in 1910. He was married to \n Lucy Winston Sims , daughter of Judge \n F.W. Sims , and became a dairy farmer in \n Louisa County . His only brother was\n Representative \n Howard Smith of the Eighth District.","Series V: Bound Volumes \u0026 Oversize Material","This series has three subseries based on the size of the\n items, a) boxed bound volumes, b) 2M bound volumes and c)\n oversize folders, and arranged alphabetically within subseries\n according to the name of the individual or business concerned\n with the item.","For additional Bibb bound volumes see boxes\n 34-37."],"userestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eSee the \n \u003cextref type=\"simple\" href=\"https://www.library.virginia.edu/policies/use-of-materials\"\u003e\n University of Virginia Library’s use policy.\u003c/extref\u003e\u003c/p\u003e"],"userestrict_heading_ssm":["Use Restrictions"],"userestrict_tesim":["See the \n \n University of Virginia Library’s use policy."],"physloc_html_tesm":["\u003cphysloc/\u003e"],"physloc_tesim":[""],"names_ssim":["University of Virginia.

Bibb , is chiefly concerned with\n business deals they have in common, especially a plan by \n James Bibb to purchase a fire clay deposit\n on Ogg's farm in order to make bricks, eventually called the \n Clay Valley Brick and Tile Works ,\n beginning with his letters of April 1891 and continuing\n through 1894, including the mention of a strike by\n African-American workers at the brick works (1891 Sep 14).\n Other topics include: a purchase of a mill in \n Basic City (1890 Dec 9), sale of \n Basic City lots and \n James Bibb 's collateral (1890 Nov 20),\n land schemes involving buying up land around \n Hanover junction (1890 Dec 8), and a list\n of lots purchased in the name of the \n Guarantee Title \u0026 Investment\n Company of \n Roanoke (1891 April 1). \n James E.

Moss (d. 1883), sheriff of \n Louisa County , include: a letter from \n William Gilman to Moss regarding the next\n election to the \n Virginia House of Delegates where, \"I\n trust \n Louisa will be redeemed and that instead\n of negroes and white Radicals I will meet a simon pure\n Virginian delegation from your good old county,\" (1875 Oct\n 25); notification of the escape of an inmate from the \n Central Lunatic Asylum near \n Richmond who was probably headed for \n Louisa (1881 Feb 16); and concerning the\n primary election, \n H.V. Winston asking for support in the\n upcoming election (1880 Jul 1).","John Q. Rhodes was the law partner of \n W.C. Bibb in the 1920's and his business\n and legal papers chiefly pertain to his legal work in \n Louisa County . In 1936, \n Rhodes became director of the \n Division of Motor Vehicles for \n Virginia . He served as a member of the \n House of Delegates from 1930-1934. His\n correspondence contains very little personal material and is\n chiefly concerned with the legal cases he represented. An\n unusual item in the business and legal papers is a prospectus\n of the \n Haile Gold Mines, Inc. (1937 Jul 15).","The personal and political folder contains a booklet of\n admission tickets for delegates to the 1924 \n Democratic National Convention in \n New York and the declaration of \n Rhodes for candidacy with supporting\n papers for the \n House of Delegates from \n Louisa County to \n Carl H.

Most of the\n correspondence was handled by \n P.B. Porter and then \n A.G. Hill , and was concerned with a new \n C \u0026 O Railroad depot (1890 Apr 11\n \u0026 19), a petition to change the name of the town of \n Tolersville to \n Mineral City (1890 Apr 17), questions\n about the charter, the prospectus of the company, the purchase\n of stock shares, and advertisements concerning the property.\n Other types of papers include: bills \u0026 receipts, financial\n statements, pay rolls, printed material, and a time book (for\n bound volumes pertaining to the \n Mineral City Mining, Manufacturing, and Land\n Company see Boxes 40-42).

There is a fair amount of\n correspondence with \n W.E. Bibb who was his legal representative\n in \n Louisa and who was appointed Special\n Commissioner to sell the \n Pyrites Mining \u0026 Chemical Company in\n November of 1900. These files also contain \n Boyd Smith 's personal business and legal\n papers such as late life insurance payments, bills, and other\n matters. Also present are inventories of the stores and tools\n at the pyrite mines listed for potential buyers of the\n property (1900 August \u0026 October; 1901 Apr) and examples of\n the \n Pyrites Chemical \u0026 Mining\n Company store script (see separate folder).","The folder of family and personal correspondence,\n 1897-1903, contains mainly letters from his son, \n D. Boyd Smith to his father, one from his\n wife [Bliss ?] (1902 May 14), and a photograph of [Bliss ?]\n and Mrs. \n Bibb (1901).","Series IV: William Worth Smith, Jr. Papers","This series consists chiefly of the legal cases handled by \n William Worth Smith, Jr. (1887-?), a \n Virginia State Senator from 1924-1934,\n arranged alphabetically by the name of the claimant. \n William Worth Smith Jr. 's papers are\n concerned predominantly with the collection of debts for his\n clients but they also contain separate folders of a slander\n case, cases of divorce, the purchase of \"Ionia Farm, and law\n suits. \n William Worth Smith Jr. 's correspondence\n folder includes letters of a political nature from \n Claude Swanson , \n Charles C. Carlin , \n Howard W. Smith , and \n A. Willis Robertson . \n William Worth Smith Jr. was born in \n Fauquier County to \n William Worth Smith and \n Lucinda Lewis Smith and was educated at \n Randolph-Macon College and the \n University of Virginia , receiving his law\n degree in 1910.
