The Rev. Laurence J. Kelly, S.J., papers, 1887-1955 (bulk 1895-1950).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/183702396

The Rev. Laurence J. Kelly papers consist of daily appointment books or diaries kept by Fr. Kelly in an almost unbroken string from 1906 until his death; journals covering some periods prior to 1906; notes for sermons and retreats; notebooks, mostly from school and college; correspondence; photographs, printed memorabilia; and a few artifacts such as medals and small framed pictures. Father Kelly's life from about age thirty onward is probably more fully documented than that of any other Jesuit represented in the Georgetown University Library manuscript collections.
