Box 1
Scope and Contents
The first series consists of the items that Morse collected. Three subseries comprise this series, Shiel’s manuscripts, the Miller correspondence and memorabilia. The handwritten, typewritten, and microfilmed manuscripts are all in this series. Miller’s correspondence includes letters between her and others and is not limited to those she exchanged with Shiel. The news clippings in this subseries relate to Patrick Miller’s inheritance. The memorabilia in this series includes a lock of Shiel’s hair purchased by Morse in 1981 together with the provenance papers. The items removed from the Grant Richards copy of [i]How the Old Woman got Home[/i] and original publications of Shiel’s short stories that could not otherwise be catalogued are held in this series. A complete searchable database of the folders is available in the Archives and Special Collections Department.
