Ebenezer S. Whittemore diaries, 1866-1890.

Collection consists of 22 diaries written by Ebenezer S. Whittemore. In general the diaries chronicle Whittemore's professional appointments, weather conditions and social calls. Some of the diaries have newspaper clippings pasted into the pages. The 1886 diary has a clipping about several different groups petitioning for a charter to build the Cape Cod Canal. Another diary (with an unreadable date) seems to be the text of a talk given at the Provincetown Lyceum on Theodore Parker, a noted transcendentalist, by Whittemore.
