Identifier: IV

Staff Only

Scope and Contents

Much of this correspondence involved finances--who will pay Douglass, the purchase of equipment, how the staff was to be paid, etc. Of special interest is a copy of a letter Douglass sent to Andrew Carnegie on 27 February 1912 describing the work at the quarry and the rich resource Carnegie Museum owned as a result of Douglass's efforts. The letters thank Carnegie for his personal interest in the project.
