[Letters (typed transcripts), 1893-1912 / Adelaide Crapsey]

These typed transcripts of Adelaide Crapsey letters are held in the University of Rochester Library that were assembled in scrapbooks by her mother, Adelaide (Trowbridge) Crapsey. They are largely transcripts of letters written to her parents and family. Fifteen letters are from 1893-1897 when Crapsey was a student at Kemper Hall preparatory school in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Sixteen letters were written during her third trip to Europe (1908-1910). Four letters were written in the United States to various individuals. The typescripts of the letters were made by Susan Sutton Smith and sent to Esther Lowenthal with notes concerning the transcripts.
