Custodial Note

The Attorney General, letters received series appears to have been separated from the remaining Attorney General's correspondence held by the Texas State Archives. See Attorney General Correspondence and Other Material, 1874-1930, bulk 1880-1914.

In 2006 a small cache (1.5 in.) of original personal letters received, dated October 1886-July 1897, was transferred to the Center for American History from the Texas State Archives, where it had originally resided within the Attorney General Correspondence and Other Material, 1874-1930, bulk 1880-1914 . This material is now housed in box 2J143.
