Brotherton's letters were primarily written by his siblings, especially his brother James. He also received letters from extended family members, friends, and Sadie. ","Series II: Newspapers primarily contains newspaper clippings of poems. There is also a copy of the New York Tribute from 1887. Another folder contains a newspaper clipping that held a lock of hair inside of it, and the hair is included in the folder. ","Series III: Papers consists of family paper documents. There are business cards for William H. Brotherton, committee papers, financial documents, printed flyers, written fragments, a marriage announcement for William and Sadie's daughter Helen Brotherton, and writings. The writings consist of poems, songs, and essays. They are not attributed to a specific author and do not have dates. One poem example is a romantic poem, with one stanza, \"I look around, and feel along / And then there falls a tear / For oh! Thou art not here my love / For oh! Thou art not here.\" One of the handwritten song lyrics papers includes a reference to the 'chorus.'"],"userestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe copyright status of this collection is unknown.
