Library Gets Historical Items
A scrapbook and other historical material relating to one of the oldest Kansas families has been given to the Kansas Collection in Watson library, Robert Vosper, director, said today.
The donor is Bala P. Waggener of Atchison, an alumnus and former member of the Board of Regents. Waggener's grandfather opened one of the first law offices in Kansas and the family has continued prominent in Kansas legal and public affairs.
KU's Kansas Collection, consisting of about 17,000 books and many important manuscripts, supplements the library of the State Historical Society in Topeka as a major center for original studies of Kansas and midwest history, Mr. Vosper said.
Recently Kenneth S. Davis, a Kansas author of several books, used the four filing boxes of unpublished manuscript letters of Gen. James H. Lane as source materials for the biography he is writing on this early Kansas senator.
