Abstract:

The papers of a lawyer and Wisconsin state senator from Janesville consisting of correspondence, clippings, speeches, and other items divided into four categories: Biographical Papers, Correspondence, Subject Files, and Clippings.

There is also a good deal of material on the Congregational Church and the Wisconsin State Bar Association. Prominent correspondents include William Howard Taft and John D. Rockefeller. Related to this collection are the records of the First Congregational United Church of Christ-Janesville.
