Abstract:

Papers, 1818-1838, of Cyrus Parker Bradley of Concord, NH including essays written while at Phillips Exeter Academy and Dartmouth College, personal correspondence including autographs from political figures, and four volumes of diaries.

Scope and Content:

The Cyrus P. Bradley Papers, 1818-1838, contain four basic types of materials related to Cyrus Parker Bradley. The first type of material is essays that Bradley wrote while he was at school at Phillips Exeter Academy, NH and Dartmouth College, NH. The second type of material is personal letters written to his family and received from friends. Principal among the latter are 18 letters from John Farmer, on from Jacob Bailey Moore, three from Edward D. Very, and two from Cyril C. Cady. Both Very and Cady were classmates of Bradley's while he attended Dartmouth. The third type of material is largely correspondence relating to Bradley's autograph collection. It appears that most of the prominent autographs have been separated from the collection, and what remains are autographs from lesser political figures. The fourth type of material in the collection is four volumes of Bradley's diaries.
