Scope and Contents of the Collection
The Jessie May Williams F. Friedline Papers consist of a journal, a published article and biographical information. The papers primarily concern her visit to Mount Holyoke College in 1926 after an absence of forty years. In a journal that she kept during that trip she describes her journey to and from South Hadley, Massachusetts, time spent visiting former teachers Anna C.
