This box contains Three bound books containing onion skin copies
of
letters that CFH wrote to various work related recipients.
Some of
these documents include letters he wrote as a trustee, as a professor,
and also as a son (only one). In the preceding pages of each
volume,
there is an index of names and corresponding page numbers.
However,
this system that Himes established fell short because he did not
anticipate the vast number of correspondence he would write.
