Manuscripts
The Richard Watson Gilder correspondence consists of letters mainly from Richard Gilder addressed to Brigham Johnson, editor of the Cedar Rapids Republican and later Iowa State Librarian, from 1887 to 1931. Subjects discussed in the letters include literary matters, political issues (particularly Grover Cleveland and the Republican Party), David Bennett Hill, the Gilder family and Gilder's wife, Helena de Kay Gilder. After Richard Gilder's death in 1909, Brigham continued to correspond with Helena de Kay Gilder and the Gilders' daughter, Rosamond Gilder.
