Description
Scope and Content

telegrams and letters to his wife upon his death. The memoirs include information on
his diplomatic service and travels. The speeches, 1910-1930, are largely based on
his travels and activities. There are diaries by other persons of his trips to
Albania, Russia in 1921, and to the Near East. Finally, biographical materials
