Scope and Contents

Contains the bound publications and books that were donated at a later date. Contents include family bibles, red bound books of pamphlets that were bound by Berea College; and, based on the notes on the inside covers of most of the books they were a part of Mrs. Caperton's personal library. All the red books contain handwritten notes and clippings about a variety of topics. All materials that were found within the books were retained in their original arrangements to preserve the provenance of the series. Special Note: Due to a later donation by a Burnam descendant, the Journal Series, Series 15, is continued into Boxes 55-56.
