Scope and Contents

This folder contains a seven page account of both the volcanoes in Central America during the period of the collection. Although the paper is presumably written by Sells first husband, Deitrick, it has no indicated author or date. The paper describes the threat of volcanoes to mainly Nicaragua and Panama and concludes that the construction of a canal in Panama would be ill-advised.
