Gaffney Assistant Editor Collection of Regional History and University Archives John M. Olin Library Ithaca, New York 1970 This microfilm publication meets the standards established by the NATIONAL HISTORICAL PUBLICATIONS COMMISSION General Services Administration, and was produced with its assistance to help achieve equal opportunity for scholarship. CONTENTS Acknowledgment . 4 Property Rights . 5 General Introduction 5 White Chronology 5 Biographical Sketch 6 Description of the Collection . 11 Editorial Procedures . 12 Other Manuscript Collections 14 Reel Notes 15 Index to Correspondence Reels 77 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This collection was preserved in the Cornell UniverSity Libraries after White's death. There it received the special attention of Professor George Lincoln Burr who was White's pupil, associate and friend. With the estab· lishment of the Collection of Regional History and University Archives, it joined the other manuscript collections relating to the history of the university and was organized and described for the use of scholars by the staff of the collection. The results of this work may be seen in the Report of Jhe C11ra/or and Arrhivisl, 1950·1954, 1954-1958, and in the various unpublished listings maintained in the accession records of the papers. Encouragement to undertake the present task of preparing it for microfilm publication came from Mrs. Edith M. Fox, former Curator and Archivist and from Dr. Oliver W. Holmes and his associates at the National Historical Publi· cations Commission. Their assistance and interest over several years have seen the project through many problems and delays and are deeply appreciated.
