Thomas Cogdell Wetmore papers, 1872-1908 (bulk 1892-1904) [manuscript].

Chiefly letters between Wetmore and his wife, Susanna Boone Allan, in 1892 and 1893, before their marriage and later while he was traveling in the North to raise funds for Christ's School or for his church work, or when Susanna Wetmore was away from home, and letters received from their relatives. Early letters deal chiefly with matters of courtship and engagement, but also discuss Episcopal Church matters and individuals in Lincolnton, N.C., Thomas Wetmore's hometown. Letters from Susanna Wetmore include descriptions of Baltimore and Johns Hopkins Hospital in 1894. Thomas Wetmore's letters from 1898 to 1904 discuss cities he visited, especially New York, and Episcopal Church matters.
