The Charles Kent papers consist largely of letters written to Charles Kent and a few others from 1862 to 1889. The correspondents include Cardinals Nicholas Wiseman, Henry Edward Manning, and John Henry Newman, and British Prime Minister William Gladstone. Most of the letters are concerned with the treatment of religious matters and Roman Catholicism in the English press. Also included are two incomplete typescripts by Kent, the first titled 'Anecdotes about Cardinal Wiseman', the second 'Anecdotes about Cardinal Manning'; a bibliography of Wiseman; and a few diary entries.
