INTRODUCTION TO THE CHRONOLOGICAL INDEX
Listed below, in chronological order within each year, are over 2000
letters printed in the Times from 1881 through 1889. Eventually two additional
indexes will be added, one listing the letters alphabetically by author and the
other by subject.
This index does not include every letter published during that period,
although that was the original intent. Approximately an entire year of the
paper is missing and was never microfilmed. In addition, the difficulty of
locating letters in the Times during a period in which there was no regular
page for them probably means that a few letters were never found in the papers
that are available.
There are no doubt errors in the index: names misspelled, dates copied or
typed incorrectly, pages wrongly numbered, letters categorized by the wrong
topic, etc. Since this is a cyberbook, those errors can be easily corrected if
brought to our attention. You are encouraged to do that, sending an e-mail
message to reshaffer@csupomona.edu.
Certain abbreviations have been used to save space. In "Topics," the
following are used: agri = agriculture; misc = miscellaneous; PPs = political
parties; RRs = railroads. Elsewhere, "Ed" or "ed" refers to "editor." Most of
the others, it is hoped, are obvious. Occasionally a letter that was
particularly GOOD or FUNNY caught our attention and is so marked in the
"comment" column.
Nouns used in the index are not case sensitive. For speed in typing, and
since the original intent was that the index was only a tool to be used in
writing the anthology, no effort was made to capitalize the first letters of
names, etc. When the decision was made to include the index as part of the
anthology, the task of going through it and capitalizing where appropriate was
not worth the effort. The assumption is that a reader who is interested in a
particular author or topic can find the item in the Times, using the index,
whether the name is capitalized or not.
Thanks to the students in my Fall, 1992, American History class who
compiled a portion of this index as they researched various topics in the
Times. It should be noted, however, that the student who was assigned Dec.,
1881, found only the letter on dogs by FS, and for some time that was thought
to be the first letter printed in the Times. Only years later did Cambro's
earlier letter, which was the first, come to light, much to our chagrin.
1881, 1882
