VIII. William H. Campbell,, 1851-1937,, bulk: 1861-1894

Summary: A large portion of the papers in the Campbell Series were created after William H. Campbell's death for the memorial publication created by Dr. David Murray. Many of these letters from family, friends, and colleagues are addressed to Murray, but a few do contain letters written by Campbell and forwarded to Murray. Also included are materials relating to a successful series of a novel created by Margaret Deland, Campbell's niece, featuring a character partially based on Campbell. Papers in Series VIII also reflect Campbell's activities to support the college, including fundraising letters, correspondence with students and their families, and speeches before campus groups.
