COLLEGE RECEIVES VALUABLE DOCUMENTS
June, 1914

When Judge Frederick Chase completed his work on volume one of the History of Dartmouth College, the College bought the rights to all papers connected with his work. Now that the second volume has been completed by Professor Lord, the papers have come into the actual possession of the College. Mrs. Chase has been generous in her interpretation of the terms of the contract and has included documents which do not directly bear on the history of the College. Among the papers are autograph letters from President Washington, President Jackson, General Benjamin F. Butler, as well as a mass of letters and documents from college officials. These documents will be described at greater length in a subsequent issue of the Magazine.
