Datebook (empty), 1931
Description
This series consists of a series of diaries, engagement books, and notebooks which Farnam kept since his childhood. Farnam's "supplement to Arline's friendship calendar" (a recap of everything he and his sister did during the summer months through 1925) indicates that not all diaries have survived. Transcriptions of diaries from 1904-22 by John Greene (series 6.5) includes diaries for the years 1909-11 and 1922, of which the originals are missing.
Photos that were kept in the diaries have been moved to Series 8. Loose inserts, including some clippings and four- leaf clovers that Farnam preserved, have been kept in place.
