Papers, 1923-1930.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/41571243

The collection consists of small groups of letters, clippings, printed material, and two large scrapbooks containing numerous letters, clippings, printed items, and memorabilia. This material relates almost entirely to the Democratic National Conventions of 1924 and 1928, and to related electoral and political activity, especially in North Carolina. There are letters from and about Democratic leaders on both the national and state levels. The clippings, especially those in the scrapbooks, concern local politics in Mrs. Fearing's home region as related to these two national conventions and elections. Most of the material is in the scrapbooks. Scrapbook I, 1923-1929, relates almost entirely to the Democratic Convention of 1924. Scrapbook II, 1928-1930, concerns the Democratic National Convention of 1928, and the political activities of North Carolina Democrats before and after the convention. Attitudes toward prohibition and the Catholic Church pervade the collection. References to several women besides Mrs. Fearing who were prominent in the Democratic Party in North Carolina appear in the papers, especially Mrs. Palmer Jerman.
