{"value"=>"<p>\"All of the clippings in this book have to do with the two Bells - The Estelline Bell (4 August 1883-28 August 1886) and The Dakota Bell (16 April 1887-27 August 1887) - and Hayden Carruth's writing for these two papers. These clippings were all made in the Bells' offices: that is, they were not furnished by clipping agencies. Presumably, therefore, they were virtually all from exchanges and did not represent all of the comment made about the Bells by the contemporary press\".</p> <p>\"The clippings about the Estelline Bell have been roughly divided into two categories: those commenting upon the Bell during H. C.'s editorship thereof and those about his sale of the paper. Those about the Dakota Bell are grouped in three categories: comment upon the announcement of the establishment of the magazine and upon its first issue; comment upon later issues of the magazine; and comment upon its suspension\" (Note by Gorton V. Carruth, June 1958)</p>"}
