R. J. Heatwole Papers

  • US MCUSAA HM1/232SC
  • Collection
  • 1901-1908

This small set of papers consists of a notebook and a copy of Heatwole's book, Gems of Thought for Memory's Casket.  The notebook appears to have served a number of purposes, containing what appears to be information about financial accounts, anecdotes and scriptures, addresses, and miscellaneous notes.  The book is notable because the text block was inserted upside-down when bound.

  • Collection
  • 1890-1910

Consists entirely of photocopies made by or for Adolf J. Krehbiel when he was working on his biography of Jacob S. Krehbiel (his father?).

A few items have been translated into English, probably by Hilda Ediger Voth, who worked at the MLA at the time.

There is also a copy of The J. S. Krehbiel Story (1982).
