Clippings and correspondence related primarily to Hallowell's career as an army officer and as lieutenant-colonel of the 55th Mass. Regiment, the second Black regiment in the state, during the Civil War. Hallowell was first enlisted as a member of the 20th Mass. regiment and was later involved, along with his brothers Edward N. and Richard P. Hallowell, in the recruitment of Black soldiers for the 54th and 55th Mass. regiments. The Hallowells were active in the anti-slavery movement and in their attempts to get equal pay for Black soldiers and other equal treatment for Blacks. The papers, primarily in scrapbooks, also contain Hallowell's essays as a student at Harvard College (Class of 1861), papers related to his lifelong affiliation and loyalty to the college, and items concerning his career as a businessman in Boston. (Cont.) Correspondents include Richard P. Hallowell, Edward N. Hallowell, John A. Andrew, Morris L. Hallowell, Theodore Roosevelt, George F. Hoar, William H. Taft, and Henry Cabot Lodge.
