FOREWORD
It was a July 11, 1955, letter addressed "To the Curator, 'Browning Room,' Baylor University, Waco, Texas, U. S. A." that first brought the owner of the Cyrus Mason manuscript in touch with Mrs. A. J. Armstrong, Director of the Armstrong Browning Library and widow of its founder. Dr. Armstrong had died in 1954, and Mrs. Armstrong had been appointed to direct the activities of the collection.
The writer of the letter was Mrs. Barbara C. Scarlett, granddaughter of Cyrus Mason. A "sample" of five pages of the manuscript (which Mrs. Scarlett mailed to Mrs. Armstrong) arrived at Mrs. Armstrong's office on the morning of August 3, 1955, and on the same day Mrs. Armstrong composed a letter requesting Mrs. Scarlett to send the rest of the manuscript. The remainder was mailed from London on August 8 and was in Waco by August 22. At first Mrs. Armstrong feared that pages 48 of Part I were missing, but these pages were later discovered to be collected in the bundle which made up Part V. Thus began the voluminous correspondence which led to the acquisition of the Cyrus Mason manuscript and the publishing rights in the United States and Canada.
