	2	8888.0096.0000.00	documents	Lumber Industry Documents:BackgroundThe mate				Lumber Industry Documents:BackgroundThe material in this collection was acquired by purchase from various sources. It consists of two receipts, a time-keeper's book, a book listing lumber sales and shipments, a ledger of 304 pages, and a sheet found in the time-keepers book listing expenses for trips.Scope and ContentThe two receipts are dated 28 September and 30 November 1829 and refer to the receipt on board the sloops Eagle and True Guide of stated quantities of corded oak wood. In both cases the oak wood is for Justes Lowery, apparently of Hall's Landing. The only information about the vessels and Lowery is that contained in the receipts themselves. The location of Hall's Landing is not known.The book listing lumber sales and shipments by K. C. Rice of Craddockville, VA, dates from August 1916 to April 1918, and describes the transactions in detail. Craddockville is located at the head of Craddock Creek, about four miles west northwest of Belle Haven, VA. Most of the lumber, which largely consisted of 35- to 75-foot pilings or "sticks", was shipped by rail, although some was rafted. There are frequent references to Pennsylvania Railroad "car" numbers. Shipments were mostly from such Eastern Shore of Virginia points as Birds Nest Station, Nassawadox Station, Eastville Station, and Machipongo Station. Destinations included Newark and Harrison, NJ, Boston, MA, Buffalo, NY, and Mahanoy City, PA. Some of the "sticks" were sold under contract to the U. S. Government.The time-keeper's book covers the period from April 1910 through October 1910 and November 1912. It lists K. C. and John W. Rice, as well as a number of other employees. It gives the number of days worked per month. Each month is divided into two parts. Although the printed format contains a column for pay "rate per day", no rates are entered, nor is there an entry in the column for total amounts paid. The name K. C. Rice has been entered on the flyleaf at the back of the book.The ledger, which apparently is from the L. J. Houston & Co. of Stockton, MD, covers the period from January 1902 through December 1907. Stockton lies about eleven miles south of Snow Hill, MD, and about three miles north of the Virginia border. The ledger reflects monetary entries for a number of individuals and organizations whose names are shown in an alphabetical index at the front of the volume. In addition, sections of the ledger at pp. 193-209 and 302-304 list weekly rental income for 1909-1910 and1904-1906 respectively.One BoxFolder 1- Two receipts: (1) dated 28 Sept 1829 for eighteen and one half cords of oak wood received on board the sloop True Guide at Hall's Landing by W.

	5	8888.0101.0000.00	papers	Papers of Constance S. Larrabee				The material in this collection was acquired in a donation from Constance Stuart Larrabee. Constance Stuart was born in England in 1914 and sailed with her parents to South Africa in the same year. She reseived her first camera, a Kodak No. 0 Box Brownie, at the age of ten, and was captivated by the medium. She studied photography in London and Munich. In 1944, she was South Africa's first woman war correspondednt serving in WWII. Her mission in Egypt was to document the acitvities of the South African Sixth Armored Division. Although her assignment was only to last six weeks, she turned it into an extended odyssey that took her to the front lines in Italy and Southern France, to areas just liberated from Axis rule, including Rome and Paris, and to war-torn London, where the menace of the V-2 rockets was ever present. Her photographs, stark, realistic, and compelling, proide a unique insight into World War II and its aftermath. Consatnce came to America in 1949 when she married Colonel Sterling Larrabee and moved to Chestertown on the Eastern Shore in 1950. She became an American citizen in 1953. Much of her Eastern Shore life centered at King's Prevention Kennel, where she bred over 600 Norwich and Norfolk terriers. Constance bred and trained not merely pets, but champions. An acknowledged expert on the breed, she co-edited Norwich Terrier USA 1936-1966 for the Norwich Terrier Club, USA. Ever concerned with her puppies' well-being, she permitted adoption only after she had carefully screened the prospective owners.Though very involved in breeding champion terriers, she also understood the importance of being involved with her community. The Chestertown Garden Club, the Humane Society of Kent County, the Chestertown Arts League, the Kent County Arts Council, and Washington College were some of the beneficiaries of her boundless energy and inspiration. In 1955 two of her photographs were selected by Edward Steichen to be included in The Family of Man exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. She has since exhibited internationally and has work in leading museum collections, including the Corcoran Gallery of Art and the National Museum of African Art.[compliled from several sources in the collection by Lynne Phillips]Scope and ContentThe items in this collection are organized by subject.
