Scope and Content Information

Personal, family, and business correspondence, and letters to government officials and journalists reflect McClure's interest in Australia, international affairs particularly World War I and the League of Nations, agriculture, commerce and economics. Frederic J. Haskin and Yandell Henderson are correspondents and there are brief or routine responses from John H. Clarke, Homer S. Cummings, Walter Lippmann, Felix Morley, William S. Shepherd, and Oscar W. Underwood.

Other topics include local affairs in Warren County, Va., particularly Calvary Episcopal Church, Front Royal and the management of "Moreland"; and the papers of George F. Viett of Norfolk, Va.

In addition the collection contains miscellaneous writings, a diary and a letterbook kept while working for H.W. Peabody and Company, Sydney, a scrapbook, and a 1928 rain map of New South Wales.
