Papers of Henry N. Graven, 1908-1974.

The papers of Henry N. Graven document his legal and judicial career while also reflecting his other interests. The majority of the collection (three of the four series) relate to his work as a lawyer and judge. There are subject files ranging from types of evidence to jury instructions, along with briefs, speeches, and index cards on legal principles. The personal papers section includes even more about his career on the bench, with files on law clerks, some memoirs and tributes, and folders about his retirement. However, this series also reflects the Judge's other interests. He was a member of the Board of Trustees of the School of Religion at the University of Iowa and he was very active in the Lutheran Church. Two boxes of correspondence include letters from: Guy M. Gillette, Nelson G. Kraschel, Mason Ladd, and Wiley Rutledge.
