scopecontent

{"value"=>"<p>Three Walsh family letters are included here although the relationship of the correspondents to Townsend Walsh is not clear. There is one letter from <span class=\"persname\">Dudley Walsh</span> to his son <span class=\"persname\">John Walsh</span> (who was apparently in school at Yale) in 1814. In addition there is a letter to <span class=\"persname\">Dudley Walsh</span> from <span class=\"persname\">Alice Walsh</span> (sister?) in Ireland (1815) and a second letter to him from his brother in Dublin (1815). A horoscope done for Walsh in 1913 by <span class=\"persname\">Albert Jay Snow</span>of Los Angeles is particularly valuable because it is the only document in which Walsh's birth date is recorded. A class list of students in the <span class=\"corpname\">Albany Academy</span> is also of value because it documents Walsh's enrollment in that institution. A card listing Walsh's classes at <span class=\"corpname\">Harvard</span> for one term is also of interest.</p>"}
