Series I., Subseries D. Correspondence, 1825-1944.
- Scope and content:
-
Contains correspondence-related material including lists of correspondents, correspondence registers, postal and delivery records, general correspondence files, and the outgoing letter file of Dr. Joseph DeJarnette. The outgoing letter file was separated from the general correspondence because it arrived as its own separate entity within the collection. As a side note, lunacy and commitment papers that were originally housed with the correspondence can be found in Series IV. Patient Records, Subseries D. Commitment Records. The earliest correspondence files are part of accession 31030, while some letters (mostly post-1900) are part of accession 41404. The correspondence lists and registers, as well as Dr. DeJarnette's outgoing letters are part of accession 41404.
