1903-1909
This folder is labeled as spanning the years 1903-1920, but contains
correspondence only to 1909. There is a gap of 12 years due to a break in
service.
The 1905-1909 correspondence mainly concerns the Sketch Book Publishing Company
affair. Sketch Book was an artistic magazine which had financial difficulties and
which the National Society of Fine Arts considered taking over. Cassel's reports
contain complete information on the finances of the company as well as his
evaluation of the general soundness of the organization. Mrs. Blaine made a $500
loan to the Sketch Book.
Other items of importance in this period are: a proposed loan to Stanley Howard
for the purchase of land near Phoenix, Arizona; Cobb-Smith Loan for $30,000, and a
report on Miss Flynn, a former teacher at Parker School, whom Cassels believed to
be mentally unbalanced.

Reports on Mrs. Blaine's real estate, especially the Hubbard Woods Estate. Also a

Included are reports on Mrs. Blaine's income tax for the years 1917-1919, and a
difficulty which arose with the Treasury Department, which was settled out of
court on Mrs. Blaine's terms. There is also a document which outlines in detail
the legality of Harold McCormick's divorce from Edith Rockefeller and his legal
right to remarry.

1928-194774 folders The Cassels papers from 1928 until his death in 1947, concern the affairs of the
Stanley McCormick and Mary Virginia McCormick estates, and Mrs. Blaine's connection
with them. The bulk of the correspondence contains financial affairs, legal affairs
(which not infrequently were fought out in court), and administrative affairs of
these two estates. Both Stanley and Virginia McCormick were incompetent children of Cyrus Hall
McCormick. There was a great deal of legal work involved in handling the properties
of these two incompetents. Upon their deaths, it took much effort for Cassels and
others to settle their estates. The biggest single factor which Mrs. Blaine had to deal with through Cassels was
the friction between Mrs. Stanley McCormick and the McCormick family on the
treatment and property affairs of Stanley McCormick. One case went as far as the
Illinois Supreme Court. There were many other cases in Illinois and California. In the Report of Proceedings of the Circuit Court of Cook County, June 29-July 17,
1915 is a summary of Mary Virginia McCormick's life given in Mrs. Blaine's words.
Much can be learned from these folders concerning the legal status of incompetent
people and the handling of their estates. From time to time, shares of International Harvester stock were sold for the
estates of Stanley and Virginia, so that one can determine the value of such stock
throughout this period. Fluctuation in value of these estates is very evident
between 1928 and 1947. From 1928-1947 there are, interspersed with the affairs of these two estates, items
of other interest. Cassels shared Mrs. Blaine's interest in international affairs, world government,
and world peace. In May 1937, there is a letter from James Hamilton Lewis of the
United States Senate concerning Roosevelt's court packing attempt. Also in the May
1937 folder is a booklet “Pacific Affairs,” which reveals American
knowledge of far eastern affairs at that time. In the June to December 1937 correspondence are a few pieces which treat very
generally the “World Foundation.” In 1938, Cassels wrote concerning the
“American Committee for World Citizenship,” but in November of 1938
there is a letter which shows that Mrs. Blaine offered to underwrite the
“World Citizens Committee” to the extent of $30,000. A document dated
September 20, 1941 shows that Mrs. Blaine gave a total of $60,000 to the World
Citizens Association up to that time. Mrs. Blaine was the chairman of the executive
committee of this organization, and Cassels the treasurer. These folders include the
minutes of the December 5, 1938 meeting of the Executive Committee of the WCA?
(found in the January 1939 folder) and also the March 3, 1939 minutes. The latter
meeting was held in Mrs. Blaine's Chicago home. The June 1938 correspondence contains several letters from Cassels and others on
“The New Commonwealth,” an international society to promote
international law and order through the creation of an equity tribunal and an
international police force. During the years preceding and during World War II,
Cassels sent Mrs. Blaine a great number of reports from the State Department, which
can be found in these folders. Examples include: - January 1939 papers on the Lima Conference, including a speech of Alfred
Landon;
- April 15, 1939 speech by Ben M. Cherrington of the Dept. of State on American
foreign policy in general;
- June 6, 1939 speech of Sumner Wells (Under Secretary of State) on the war
threat;
- January 1940 pamphlet by Grenville Clark concerning a “Federation of
Free Peoples.”
In 1945 and 1946, Cassels corresponded concerning the United Nations; he sent her
the charter etc. In January of 1943, Cassels was instrumental in the “International Relations
Center,” toward which Mrs. Blaine contributed at least $1,000. Also included
with the 1943 correspondence is a speech Harold E. Stassen delivered before the
Chicago Council on Foreign Relations entitled, “The United Nations as a
Pattern for a Lasting Peace,” March 31, 1943 (found in April to December 1943
folder). From 1943-1947 there are occasional reports on the “Nettie Fowler McCormick
Trust for the Chinese People,” worth $100,000, the interest of which was to be
used by Madame and Chiang Kai-shek, as they saw fit. Document filed March 20, 1943
contains the details of this trust. In the 1942-1946 papers are several pieces entitled “Eastern Trust,”
which seems to concern financial matters of all the McCormicks, but is not
explained. There is a speech dated December 18, 1945, which either Cassels or Mrs. Blaine must
have delivered entitled, “The Battle of Peace.” Letter of June 27, 1946 reveals that Cassels proofread the galley sheets of
“The World at the Crossroads,” a publication of the Executive Committee
of the World Citizens Association. Cassels died July 8, 1947 at the age of 72.

Last letter asks Mrs. Blaine to buy a house, which Mr. Caustin and his crew had

Mrs. Caustin used the argument that by buying the house her husband would be able to
put his men to work on a new job. She also wished to sell a thrashing machine patent
for $10,000. The patent certificate was signed by Andrew Jackson.

Chapman, John Adams, 1881-1957 December 27
Location: Chicago, Illinois.
John Chapman was a cousin of Mrs. Blaine. He wrote letters to Mrs. Blaine
concerning personal and family matters from early childhood until Mrs. Blaine's
death. Mr. Chapman became an agent of the Chicago Stock Exchange Building some time
before 1909, and in 1930 was elected Vice President of the Bartlet, Knight and
Company, Investment Securities. Chapman was employed by the McCormicks although this
correspondence does not reveal precisely in what capacity.
In 1916, he travelled with “Aunt Nettie,” Mrs. Cyrus Hall McCormick. In
his illness, Stanley McCormick enjoyed visiting with Chapman as they apparently had
much in common. Mrs. Blaine paid Chapman's expenses for several trips to Riven Rock
Estate near Santa Barbara, California to visit his cousin Stanley. Much of the
correspondence with Mrs. Blaine concerns these visits. Announcements of marriages of
Chapman's four daughters.

Reports on the nature of the possible schools to be opened and the disposition
of funds for them.
Prior to July 1899 Jackman was still Assistant Manager of the Chicago Normal
School. At that time he accepted Parker's offer of the position of head of the
science department and dean of the schools Mrs. Blaine proposed to open. But
even the material prior to that date seems to refer to the opening of the
schools Mrs. Blaine contemplated. The bulk of the 1899 material consists of
quite detailed estimates of income and expenditures, analysis of the several
departments and of the purposes of the school as a new experiment in the
American school system. These letters are as full and cogent as any in the
collection and perhaps the most important save for Parkers.

Box
