{"value"=>"<p>The material in this series consists of personal items of Edith Meiser and her husband Thomas McKnight. The folder on Thomas McKnight consists mainly of old letters and tokens from Thomas' early childhood. Four folders in the series are letters from Edith Meiser to Thomas McKnight just a few months after their marriage when she was traveling the vaudeville circuit. The letters show the more personal side of Edith and her relationship towards her husband. Included in the letter is a brief inventory of Edith Meiser's expenses while traveling. While there is one or two mementos of Edith Meiser's life when she was young, the rest of the material is mainly personal letters written to and by Edith in an attempt to find a proper home for her collection of <span class=\"title\">Sherlock Holmes</span> scripts. Also included are some newspaper clippings.</p>"}
