{"value"=>"<p>This series consists of four scrapbooks. Two of these books pertain to G. B. Agnew's National Guard activities (1894-1897) and contain newspaper clippings, reception invitations, letters, and Western Union telegram messages.</p> <p>The remaining two scrapbooks hold material that relates to Agnew's political and family life. The political scrapbook consists almost entirely of brittle newspaper clippings (1907-1910). There are a few letters within this scrapbook.</p> <p>The family scrapbook is in better condition but is very limited in terms of the amount of material that it holds in reference to Agnew's family life. The family scrapbook contains pressed flowers (dating from 1877); prints reflecting the family's religious interests (Martin Luther); ink drawing by \"cousin Arthur\"; political newspaper clippings; and Princeton University commencement cards.</p> <p>Included in this series are certificates and awards issued to G. B. Agnew. Attached to one of these certificates is a pen. Gov. Charles E. Hughes used this pen in the signing of Chamber 506 of the laws of 1908, amending the Percy-Gray Law (Agnew-Hart Bill).</p>"}
