Processing note

The papers were in folders but they had to be renumbered. There is a handwritten note on the inventory saying "This collection was changed to Coll. #948 during the Benton Hatch Project. Previously, this collection was designated as Misc. Box 101/6 to 101/14, and previous to that, V-1, misc. Box 3/14." There weren’t any dates on these notes.
