The collection includes a student paper entitled "Self-repetition in Hawthorne's stories and novels" (71 pp. holograph probably prepared while a student at the College of Charleston).

D.) presented to the University of Texas, entitled "The debt to Shakespeare in the Beaumont-and-Fletcher plays, " was privately printed in 1938--a copy can be found in the collection.
