Series II. Other Documents, 1898-1941

Extent

0.52 Linear feet

Scope and Contents Note

The series includes documents from the collection other than Jefferson's sermons and writings. Some of these relate directly to Jefferson, including a record of some marriage ceremonies he performed and congratulatory letters he received on the occasion of his 25th anniversary at Broadway Tabernacle. Other documents relate to the church itself, including an appeal for the Endowment Fund (circa 1900?), an information pamphlet (1902), and some Year Books. There are also a small number of documents not related directly to either Jefferson or Broadway Tabernacle. The container list identifies all content.
