Francis Carruthers Gould papers [manuscript], 1904-1905.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/662683226

The collection contains a cartoon spoofing Joseph Chamberlain as Bre'r Fox and Arthur Balfour as Bre'r Rabbit. In a letter to J. H. Manning, 1904 October 19, Gould writes that he does not have a copy of the requested article but sends a proof of a Westminster drawing of Arthur Balfour as Br'er Possum playing dead when Lord Asquith as a dog approaches. He notes his indebtedness to Joel Chandler Harris whom he finds a "fruitful source of inspiration." The collection also contains a clipping from the New York Times, 1905, on Gould.
