Manuscripts
This collection consists primarily of letters written by James A. Garfield, from 1856 to 1881, mostly written while serving in the U.S. House of Representatives. Letters to Tracy W. Scott discuss congressional business, appointments, land, and the postal service, especially the post office at Chester Cross Roads, Ohio. Letters to Edmund Burritt Wakefield pertain to congressional committees and elections, appointments, politics, and the Crédit Mobilier scandal; they also discuss education, reading and literature, writing, and health. The collection contains two personal letters to Garfield's cousin, Henry B. Boynton, and two items relating to the Garfield Fund, established to benefit Lucretia Garfield following the shooting of James A. Garfield.
