Dickson H. and Marjorie B. Leavens papers, 1904-1972

Title: Dickson H. and Marjorie B. Leavens papers 1904-1972

The major portion of the papers of Dickson H. Leavens, economist and faculty member of the Yale Mission College in China, is made up of family and business correspondence. In the family correspondence, conducted regularly over nearly two decades (1909-1922), Leavens reports on the activities of the College and on political events in China, particularly in Changsha and Hunan. With his business correspondents, who were largely members of the Yale-in-China staff, the main subject is mission activities. The papers also include Leavens' writings on the economics of silver and essays on the history of Yale-in-China. The subject files largely concern the administration and finances of the mission (1902-1940). Marjorie Leavens's correspondence with her family and friends from 1915 and 1927 contains accounts of domestic affairs and her observations on Chinese life. Also in the collection are newspaper clippings and photographs of Changsha during the riots of 1910, Java, and Hong Kong.

Raup, Hallock F. (Hallock Floyd), 1901-1985. Hallock Raup papers, 1910-1986.

Title: Hallock Raup papers, 1910-1986.

Papers documenting the personal and professional life of Hallock Raup, professor of geography at Kent State University. The Hallock Raup papers cover the period 1917 to 1986 and include personal correspondence, professional research and writing, subject files and a small collection of early twentieth-century glass lantern slides. The personal correspondence includes letters from Raup to his parents (1917-1950) and a large collection of letters from his friend John B. Nicholson, former director of the Kent State University Libraries (1975-1985). The papers also include a number of published geography articles, monographs and books chapters by Raup along with some of the corresponding research and manuscripts. Notably, Raup worked on the text of an unpublished book on local photographer, Arthur Trory. The glass lantern slides date from the early 1900s to the early 1950s and were likely used in teaching. Some were professionally produced for sale while others were made by Raup himself to accompany his presentations.
