(I.) "Gen. Chapter I"
Scope and Content
This collection of nineteenth century papers was unidentified in the archives for many years. Certain items in this collection suggest that Rev. Mendenhall J. Dennis, D. D. was their creator. A book labeled "Exercises," is signed "M. J. Dennis." Other manuscripts in this collection exhibit similar handwriting and subject content to this piece. An "Estimate Book," from the Job Room at the United Brethren Publishing House, as well as other papers, place the provenance of the collection in Dayton, Ohio. Few dates are given, with the exception of 1875 and 1888.
