Collection Summary

Abstract

This collection consists of papers documenting Ellery Sedgwick's professional career as editor of the Atlantic Monthly Magazine, 1908-1938, and his personal and varied involvements. The bulk of the papers contain correspondence with contributing authors and poets, notes, and manuscripts in various forms.

Biographical Sketch

Ellery Sedgwick, 1872-1960

Ellery Sedgwick was born February 27, 1872 in New York City, to Henry Dwight and Henrietta (Ellery) Sedgwick. Sedgwick's ancestors, a leading family of Stockbridge, Massachusetts, established a tradition of literary achievement, including authors Catherine Maria Sedgwick and Henry Dwight Sedgwick.

Sedgwick attended the Groton School of Massachusetts, from which he graduated in 1890, and Harvard University. Upon graduation from Harvard's Class of 1894, Sedgwick returned to Groton to teach classics for two years. He left the school in 1896 to accept a position as assistant editor at Youth's Companion. In 1900 Sedgwick took over editorship of Leslie's Monthly Magazine, a position he held for four years. He later worked for one year at McClure's Magazine, and in 1908 for D. Appleton and Company.

Sedgwick began his career with the Atlantic Monthly in 1908, when he purchased the magazine from Houghton-Mifflin. At that time, the monthly circulation was 15,000 and the magazine ran an annual deficit of $5000. Sedgwick worked quickly to reverse the trend, and by 1928, he had increased circulation to 137,000. He as been credited with discovering many writers, and with being the first American publisher to print the works of Ernest Hemingway. Sedgwick resigned as editor in 1938, and sold the magazine in 1939.

He was recognized for his editorial skills by three academic institutions. Tufts University and Dartmouth College awarded Sedgwick the Litt.D. in 1920 and 1921, and he received the LhD. from Syracuse University.

Sedgwick wrote his memoirs, The Happy Profession, in 1946, and in 1947 published a compilation of his favorite pieces published by Atlantic Monthly, titled Atlantic Harvest. He also edited Novel and Story: A Book of Modern Readings, with Harry A. Domincovich, which was published in 1939.

His professional activities were not limited to editing. In 1918 he became Vice-President and part-owner of the Rumford Press, an affiliation he maintained through the 1940s. He also maintained ties to Groton and Harvard as a Trustee. He served as trustee of the Boston Public Library as well.

Sedgwick married Mabel Cabot in 1904. They had four children: Ellery, Cabot, Theodora, and Henrietta. Mabel Sedgwick died in 1937. That difficult period was compounded for Sedgwick by troubles with his own health. Sciatica made him bed-ridden for a few months in 1938-1939, and he was also plagued with arthritis. He remarried in 1939, to an Englishwoman, [Isabel] Marjorie Russell. He died April 21, 1960 in Washington, D.C.

Collection Description

The Ellery Sedgwick Papers document Sedgwick's professional career as editor of the Atlantic Monthly magazine from 1908 through his retirement in 1938, and until his death in 1960. The collection also documents his personal and varied non-Atlantic Monthly relationships during this time period. His correspondence include relatives, literary figures, politicians, and fellow Harvard alumni.

The collection is housed in 24 record cartons (stored offsite) and one oversize box (remaining onsite). Sedgwick's records concern items published in the Atlantic Monthly, and consists mainly of correspondence, office files on authors, notes, manuscripts in various forms (notes, drafts, proofs and reprints), royalty statements, stockholders' records, Sedgwick's (and his staff's) carbon letters and replies, clippings, and printed materials. [For more detailed description of the contents and arrangement of these records, see the series descriptions and index.]

The organizational nature of these records is loosely based on what is assumed to be Sedgwick's original working arrangement. However, several moves and the integration of materials as they arrived at the Massachusetts Historical Society have made it impossible to restore or retain original order.

The records are arranged in five series: Atlantic Monthly General Files, Atlantic Monthly Special Subject Files, Personal Files, Professional Affiliations, and Publications. More than one half of the collection consists of Atlantic Monthly files, records of Sedgwick's correspondence and relationships with contributors to the Atlantic Monthly during his editorship. In addition, a series was created for four significant experiences, identified as Atlantic Monthly Special Subject Files. These include records relating to controversies caused by the writings of two young women, Wilma Francis Minor and Opal Whiteley; the debate regarding Al Smith's candidate for the presidential nomination; and correspondence and reaction to Sedgwick's writings on the Spanish Civil War and his trip to Spain in 1938.

The Personal Files contain correspondence and papers not directly related to the Atlantic Monthly, and include family correspondence. The series Professional Affiliations contains Sedgwick's records as Trustee/Overseer of the Arnold Arboretum, Boston Public Library, and Harvard University, and as vice-president and part-owner of the Rumford Press. The Publication series include correspondence, notes, and newspaper clippings related to Sedgwick's two books: The Happy Profession and Atlantic Harvest.

The final part of this collection contains five boxes of photocopies (which remain onsite) of some of the correspondence in the Atlantic Monthly General Files made prior to the integration into the collection of the Ellery Sedgwick papers in the spring of 1989. An alphabetical list of photocopied correspondence may be found at the end of this guide. However, because of the integration of more recent acquisitions, original files should be checked for letters not included in the initial copying process.

This guide contains two indexes: a selective index, by individual name and institutional affiliation, to correspondence in all series except the Atlantic Monthly General Files. The indexes refer to box and folder numbers prior to the transfer of the collection to record cartons for offsite storage. Because the files are arranged alphabetically, the folder list for the Atlantic Monthly General Files serves as a name index for the correspondence in that series.

Acquisition Information

The Ellery Sedgwick papers are composed of professional and personal records kept by Sedgwick as editor of the Atlantic Monthly from approximately 1898 until his death in 1960, and includes materials through 1969.

The first donation of his papers to the Massachusetts Historical Society (MHS) was made by Mrs. Marjorie (Russell) Sedgwick in 1967 and consisted of some Atlantic Monthly files, the Spanish Civil War papers and Sedgwick's records as an Overseer of Harvard University. Family letters and more general papers were donated by Mrs. Sedgwick in 1968, but the bulk of the approximately 1,940 letters written to Sedgwick during his editorship were acquired by the MHS. The Atlantic Monthly Press added a box to the collection in 1987, with the remainder of the material coming in small parcels between 1969 and 1989, the last after the death of Segdwick's successor, Edward Weeks.

The Atlantic Monthly General Files were processed as the Ellery Sedgwick papers and remained distinct from the additional materials as they were donated to the MHS by Mrs. Sedgwick and the Atlantic Monthly offices. The additions were then processed as Ellery Sedgwick papers II, III, IV, V, Mrs. Sedgwick papers, and Additions. All of these collections have been integrated into one collection, moving the materials to their appropriate locations, mostly within the Atlantic Monthly files.

Detailed Description of the Collection

The container information listed below for Series II - Series V includes the former box and folder numbers used prior to the transfer of the collection to record cartons for offsite storage. The old box and folder numbers have been retained because the Select Correspondent Index refers to them.

Users should refer to the carton and barcode numbers when requesting materials for retrieval from offsite storage.

I. Atlantic Monthly General Files, 1908 - 1960

Arranged alphabetically.

This series comprises the bulk of the Ellery Sedgwick Papers. The materials, primarily correspondence, span 1908-1960, and concentrate during the 1920s and 1930s. This series is arranged alphabetically by correspondent, and occasionally by institution or subject of correspondence. Each correspondent has an individual folder (or folders). For this reason, the container list for this series only will serve as an alphabetical index to the correspondents. A selected correspondent index has been created for the other series in this collection.

The contents of the files contain more than correspondence between Sedgwick and the many authors he dealt with in his capacity as editor of the Atlantic Monthly (1908-1939). Files contain correspondence with authors, agents, and publishers, as well as pamphlets, article reprints, and newspaper clippings. The correspondence of Atlantic Monthly staff people with authors is also included in these files. Staff members include: Mark A. DeWolfe Howe, Edward A. Weeks, Teresa S. Fitzpatrick, MacGregor Jenkins, and Theodore Morrison. These individuals are not indexed for this series because they serve in an official capacity for the magazine. Correspondence from these individuals in other capacities (personal, etc.) has been indexed.

The Atlantic Monthly General Files also contain carbon copies of outgoing correspondence, most of which was generated by Sedgwick. These have not been indexed.

A significant part of the collection is correspondence from Atlantic Monthly readers, called "Comments." These are found throughout the files, but are most prevalent for authors for whom there are many folders or boxes (such as James Norman Hall, James Truslow Adams, Edward A. Newton, and Albert J. Nock). The comments were separated from author's correspondence and arranged alphabetically and by year at the end of the file.

The subject of the letters in the General Files is uniformly the publication of articles in the Atlantic Monthly. Many folders are little more than a few letters presenting manuscripts. However, there were many authors with whom Sedgwick developed personal relationships, and/or whose works were frequently printed in the Atlantic Monthly over a period of years.

Among the authors with whom Sedgwick had extensive correspondence are: James Truslow Adams, Mary Antin, L. Adams Beck, Godfrey Rathbone Benson (Lord Charnwood), Gamaliel Bradford, William H. Chamberlin, John Jay Chapman, W. Hans Coudenhove, Mazo de la Roche, Walter D. Edmonds, Felix Frankfurter, Robert Dean Frisbie, John Galsworthy, James Norman Hall, Charles Boardman Hawes, Hudson Hoagland, Albert Kinross, Walter Lippman, Amy Lowell, William McFee, Margaret Prescott Montague, Samuel Eliot Morrison, Edward A. Newton, Albert J. Nock, Charles Nordhoff, Nora Waln Osland-Hill, Arthur Pound, Agnes Repplier, Hilda Rose, Harrison W. Smith, Logan Pearsall Smith, Henry Williamson, Owen Wister, and Hans Zinsser.

Other significant correspondents include: Pearl S. Buck, Winston S. Churchill, John Foster Dulles, Rudyard Kipling, Henry Cabot Lodge, Archibald MacLeish, Eleanor Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Carl Sandburg, George Santayana, William H. Taft, Rabindranath Tagore, Wendell L. Wilkie, and Virginia Woolfe.

II. Atlantic Monthly Special Subject Files

Arranged by subject.

The Atlantic Monthly Special Subject Files contain four sub-series regarding incidents related to Sedgwick's editorship, and which were extraordinary as per the nature of the Atlantic Monthly General Files.

Wilma Frances Minor and Opal Whiteley presented unusual material for publication in the Atlantic Monthly. Sedgwick supported their stories, the former regarding love letters of Abraham Lincoln and the latter a childhood diary, despite the controversies they caused.

Two other controversial issues raised in the magazine were the Spanish Civil War, of which Sedgwick's politics and subsequent stories he submitted made the Atlantic a forum for debate on the merits of the war, and Alfred E. Smith's candidature for nomination for the Presidency of the U.S.

The nature of these sub-series and the varied materials contained therein necessitated separation from the General Files.

A. Wilma Frances Minor, 1928-1960

Arranged chronologically.

In 1928, Wilma Frances Minor, a television interviewer and writer from California, presented to Sedgwick the opportunity to publish the story of a love affair, based on original letters between Abraham Lincoln and Ann Rutledge. Minor entrusted Sedgwick with the "original" love letters, from which she planned to write a book which would be serialized in the Atlantic Monthly. Upon publication of the first serial, Lincolniana specialists protested the authenticity of the letters. Work on the novel continued while Sedgwick contracted with California detective J.B. Armstrong to research the case. Teresa S. Fitzpatrick of the Atlantic Monthly staff was responsible for supervising the investigation. The letters were proven by experts to be forgeries, and in June 1929, Minor and her mother confessed to having created them. Minor claimed her mother was a psychic and that the spirits of Abe and Ann had commanded her to make their story known.

The sub-series is divided into three sections. Carton 13 contains Minor's correspondence with Sedgwick and his staff, and their correspondence with many people regarding the authenticity of the letters. Sedgwick retained the forgeries, which are stored in Carton 13 along with drafts of Minor's manuscript.

The correspondence and reports filed by Armstrong, and correspondence with Paul Angle, president of the Lincoln Centennial Association, are arranged alphabetically in Carton 13. Cartons 13 and 14 contain comments and inquiries regarding the serials and Sedgwick's research to authenticate the letters, from 1928-1929. This correspondence is in alphabetical order by year. Carton 14 also contains miscellaneous comments from 1949-1960 arranged alphabetically.

Correspondents of note include: Worthington Ford, Wayland A. Morrison, Ida Tarbell, Charles T. and William A. White. There is also correspondence with representatives from Rumford Press and Little, Brown & Co. regarding publication of Minor's book.

B. Alfred E. Smith / Charles C. Marshall, 1926-1929

Arranged chronologically.

This sub-series contains letters, newspaper clippings, and comments regarding an open-letter debate between Alfred E. Smith and Charles C. Marshall printed in the Atlantic Monthly in 1927.

There are six parts to this sub-series: General Correspondence, Charles C. Marshall Correspondence, Alfred E. Smith Correspondence, Miscellaneous, Publicity, and Comments, 1927-1928.

Charles C. Marshall, a New York attorney, wrote to Smith in 1927 challenging Smith's candidacy as a Democratic nominee for President of the U.S. Marshall charged that Smith, a Catholic, would have a conflict of interest which would impede his ability to fulfill the oath of office. Marshall's letter was printed by the Atlantic Monthly, which then became a forum for the controversy raised over a Roman Catholic running for President. (Non-Catholics feared that a Catholic in office would allow the Pope influence over U.S. government policies).

Among notable correspondents on this issue were: Bernard M. Baruch, Felix Frankfurter, Edmund F. Gibbons (the Bishop of Albany), Christian A. Herter, Judge Joseph M. Proskauer, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lillian D. Wald.

C. Spanish Civil War, 1938-1940

Arranged chronologically by subject.

This sub-series consists of one carton of materials regarding Sedgwick's interest in the Spanish Civil War, his trip to meet with General Francisco Franco in 1937, and articles written on the war.

The correspondence is divided into seven parts. Separate chronological files exist for Juan de Cardenas, the Spanish Consul; Winthrop Carter, whose son was missing in Spain in 1938; and the Marquis del Moral. There are folders of general correspondence and folders containing material relating to trip arrangements.

Comments about Sedgwick's politics and his articles were divided into pros and cons, and arranged in chronological order. Correspondents include: J. Roscoe Drummond, John H. Finley, J.D.M. Ford, W. Cameron Forbes, John A. Gade, and Sumner Welles.

D. Opal Whiteley, 1915-1966

Arranged chronologically and by subject.

The bulk of the materials in this sub-series span 1918 through 1929, with additional materials continuing through 1959.

The materials relate to the publication of Opal Whiteley's book. The Story of Opal was serialized in the Atlantic Monthly from March through August of 1920, and published later that year by G. P. Putnam's Sons. The serials provoked many queries regarding the diary's authenticity, yet the story appealed to many people who became enamored of the little girl of the diary. Whiteley claimed to be the daughter of Prince Henri D'Orleans, and was allegedly raised by foster parents in an Oregon lumber camp. Belief in her story was widespread, and she was recognized by her late father's mother, the Duchess de Chartres. Whiteley adopted the family name, calling herself Francoise d'Orleans. She toured India as a princess of that country (where she had lived as a small child with her "real" parents) and was an honored guest among that country's noble families.

Sedgwick spent years corresponding with people who knew Whiteley to verify her story, whose authenticity he never renounced. His most extensive correspondence in this collection was with Whiteley and with Elbert Bede, publisher of Oregon's Cottage Grove Sentinel. Bede was his primary research associate on the project.

Sedgwick's correspondence with Whiteley, Bede, and the many people contacted regarding Whiteley's unusual childhood, are arranged chronologically in Carton 16. Cartons 16 and 17 consist of comments from Atlantic Monthly readers, arranged alphabetically by year. Other materials in Carton 17 include correspondence between Sedgwick and Barbara Ward of The Economist about a fund established to aid Whiteley who spent her last years in a mental institution; correspondence with G.P. Putnam's Sons (1920-1921); correspondence with lawyers of Vanity Fair in 1920; drafts of The Story of Opal; miscellaneous notes regarding the manuscript; notes on Whiteley's biography; and assorted printed materials. There are also folders of newspaper clippings.

III. Personal Files, 1881-1969

Arranged alphabetically by individual, institution, or subject.

This series contains correspondence of a personal nature kept by Sedgwick, arranged alphabetically by correspondent, institution, or subject of correspondence. The materials in this series span 1881 to 1969, with the majority' from Sedgwick's later years at the Atlantic Monthly (1930s) and the first decade after his retirement (1940s). This series also contains letters of Catherine Maria Sedgwick (1820s) and C.F. Sedgwick (1879-1880).

Because Sedgwick established personal relationships with people associated with his editorship, there is an ambiguous nature to much of his correspondence. Correspondents for whom there were Atlantic Monthly files were moved unless the contents of the letters were purely personal, in which case the letters were left in the Personal Files.

The use of "personal" to describe the contents of this series refers to all non-Atlantic Monthly interests. Often this may be a vague distinction. Some, like Brown Brothers & Company, Sedgwick's stockbrokers, easily belong in this series. Others, such as correspondence with colleagues regarding membership in various men's clubs, are less clear because they may have had professional associations with Sedgwick as well. In this case, the letters are filed chronologically under the name of the club. Sedgwick's correspondents regarding candidature to the Century Association include Henry James, Pierre Jay, and Edward Forbes. Sedgwick's own candidature to England's Athenaeum provoked nominating letters from John Buchan, William Galsworthy, Elizabeth Haldane, Lord Dunsany, and Henry Newbolt. Sedgwick was also a member of Boston's Wednesday Evening Club.

The bulk of the correspondence in this series, contained in Cartons 17 and 18, refers to political, literary or personal issues. Sedgwick's professional advice was sought by many individuals on varied topics.

The series also contains subject files regarding Sedgwick's intervention on behalf of foreigners seeking assistance in order to leave war-torn Europe. Included in the file "Czechoslovakia" are letters of introduction used by Sedgwick in a 1937 trip to that country, and correspondence regarding P. Dobias, a student who sought asylum in the U.S. in 1939. The Harding/Hanfstaengl file contains correspondence regarding financial support of Egon Hanfstaengl, a German student at Harvard. Hanfstaengl, a distant cousin of Sedgwick, was the son of Hitler supporter Ernst Hanfstaengl, who spent World War II incarcerated in various concentration camps in England and Canada.

Also included in the Personal Files are correspondence with gardeners, book dealers, wine and cigar dealers, fund-raisers, and invitations to social events, none of which have been indexed.

The extensive list of correspondents in this series necessitated a set of criteria for creation of a selective name index. Correspondents indexed were chosen based on the number of letters or significant institutional, personal or professional affiliations. All members of the Sedgwick family were indexed, including the Rev. Theodore, W. Ellery and William Ellery, R. Minturn Sedgwick, Marjorie Russell Sedgwick and her daughter, Pamela Russell. Also included in this series are condolences sent to Mrs. Sedgwick in 1960. Letters of condolence from people for whom Atlantic Monthly files existed were moved to those files.

Carton 19 contains an assortment of materials, including essays written by Sedgwick about countries he visited, such as Greece, Portugal, Sicily, and Spain. His handwritten journals (travel diaries) of trips to Japan and South America between 1918 and 1936 are also in this carton. The diaries include addresses of contacts, daily activities, and impressions. These diaries were the basis for articles Sedgwick later submitted to the Atlantic Monthly.

Miscellaneous materials in Carton 19 include drafts of a manuscript history of the Field Family (a Stockbridge, MA, family) and notes on word ciphers labelled "William Shakespeare."

IV. Professional Affiliations

Arranged by individual institutions.

Sedgwick's professional life was not limited to literary associations. As an influential figure in Boston, as well as in the literary world, he was asked to serve on numerous boards. He was a Trustee of the Groton School, located in Groton, Massachusetts, and the Boston Public Library. He was also an Overseer of Harvard University. His wife was appointed by Harvard's Board of Overseers to a special committee to overseer management of the Arnold Arboretum in Jamaica Plain. In addition, Sedgwick was a part-owner and Vice-President of the Rumford Press, which printed the Reader's Digest, among other publications. Included in this series also are files from his days as an associate editor at Youth's Companion.

A. Arnold Arboretum, 1949-1959

This sub-series is contained in Carton 19. The materials include correspondence, reports, and committee resolutions from 1950 through 1959, in chronological order.

These records apparently were kept by Marjorie Russell Sedgwick, because it was she who was a member of the Committee to Visit the Arnold Arboretum. The Arboretum, established in Jamaica Plain in 1880 as a 500-acre park, became Harvard's botanical gardens. The park is administered by Harvard University and the Boston Department of Parks and Recreation.

Mrs. Sedgwick, who was appointed to this committee by the Harvard Board of Overseers, served during a tense period. In 1953, the corporation which had been founded to raise money to support the Arboretum challenged Harvard University for control of the Arboretum. Included are letters from Mrs. Sedgwick and her husband, and "A Survey of the Controversy," by Professor Karl Sax.

Select Correspondent Index

The following index contains select individuals who corresponded with Ellery Sedgwick. The names were taken from all parts of the collection except from the Atlantic Monthly General Files. The index is presented in two parts: by name of correspondent and by institutional affiliation.

The index is a select one because of the great number of people with whom Sedgwick had contact. Individuals were selected for inclusion on the basis of quantity of correspondence and/or institutional or professional affiliation.

The correspondence for whom files exist in the Atlantic Monthly General Files are designated in the index with an asterisk (*) after their names.

This index should be used in conjunction with the series description and box list. The indexes refer to former box and folder numbers used prior to the transfer to record cartons for offsite storage.

List of Photocopied Correspondence from General Files

The following is an alphabetical list of those correspondents for whom there are photocopies of their correspondence found the Atlantic Monthly General Files. This list should be consulted by the librarian for the letters for which readers should use the photocopies and not the original letters. Although a correspondent may be listed here, this does not mean that every letter written by that person has been photocopied. The librarian should consult the container list for the AM General Files and the index to find all correspondence for a given person and those letters should be compared against the copies to be sure that they have all been copied. If so, only the copies should be given to the researcher.

The photocopies are in found in the boxes which remain onsite.
