The collection consists of family and personal letters, subject files relating to civic activities, clippings and other printed material, legal and financial papers, photographs, and other items of James Spencer Love and his wife, Martha Eskridge Love. Correspondence, chiefly 1917-1960, discusses family and household news, business conditions, politics, personal finances, and matters relating to Burlington Mills, Inc. Subject files document James Spencer Love's membership on boards and committees of the University of North Carolina, Harvard University, and Davidson College, and Martha Eskridge Love's involvement with the University of North Carolina, the North Carolina Heart Association, and other organizations. Also included are diaries kept by James Spencer Love as a boy; a series of scrapbooks pertaining to Burlington Mills; a large number of photographs of Love family, friends, and associates, and textile mills; and speeches by James Spencer Love and Martha Eskridge Love. Some materials, including a narrative by Love, relate to James Spencer Love's World War I experiences with the 78th Army Infantry Division; other materials relate to Martha Eskridge Love's service in the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps in World War II. The addition of 1982 is chiefly photographs, but also includes a diploma and University of North Carolina Dialectic Society certificate, both 1853. The addition of 1994 includes a thesis, 1958, on Burlington Industries, Inc., and a scrapbook, 1948-1949, documenting the activities of the Anglo-American Council on Productivity. The addition of 1997 is comprised of four e.e. cummings letters, 1908-1910, written to James Spencer Love from cummings's boyhood home of Joy Farm, Silver Lake, N.H. The letter of 17 July 1908 contains several ink drawings by Cummings, including a self-portrait. The letter of 23 July 1908 is addressed to several family members--James Spencer, his mother Julia Spencer Love, and his sister Cornelia--with ink drawings of an elephant and deer. The letter of 14 July 1909 contains an acrostic "James Spencer Love" with several drawings, including a small picture of Cummings's study. The 16 August 1910 letter sends greetings and closes with a humorous self-portrait. The addition also includes two sketch books, 1872 and 1874, by Julia Spencer (Love), mother of James Spencer Love and daughter of Cornelia Phillips Spencer.

expand/collapse Expand/collapse Series 1. Correspondence, 1851-1979 (bulk 1917-1960).

About 6,000 items.

Arrangement: chronological.

Correspondence, bulk 1917-1960, consists chiefly of letters and memoranda to and from James Spencer Love ("Spencer" or JSL). James Spencer Love's correspondents include his parents, James Lee Love ("Lee") and Julia Spencer Love ("June"), his sister Cornelia Love, and various other family members, friends, and associates, including officers and division heads of Burlington Mills, Inc.

Prior to 1920, however, there are letters to and from all of the members of the Love family: James Lee, Julia, Cornelia, and Spencer. These letters discuss affairs of the Love household in Cambridge, Mass., 1889-1920; news of other family and friends; Cornelia's and Spencer's upbringing and education; Lee Love's business and professional activities; and details of summer jobs and excursions in Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and New York. Particularly prominent are letters from Cornelia and Spencer at camp in Maine, 1909-1912; letters from Lee Love written in 1910 while he was in Lincolnton, N.C., helping his brother Edgar organize the Saxony Spinning Company; letters between Lee and June Love written during the summers of 1911 and 1912, while he was at Columbia University as a director of the summer session and she was in Cambridge managing his business, the Provident Teachers Agency; and, finally, letters from Spencer Love, 1917-1919, describing his military service.

From 1919, when Spencer Love went to work at the Gastonia Cotton Manufacturing Company, until 1924, when Burlington Mills opened, there are numerous letters from Lee Love to his son giving observations and advice about business and financial matters. The elder Love was in Washington, D.C., 1919-1921, working for the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, and in Philadelphia, 1922-1923, working for the Harvard Committee on Economic Research. Letters from James Spencer Love, during this period, are few and scattered.

In 1917, Cornelia Love moved to Chapel Hill, N.C., to work for the University of North Carolina Library, where she remained employed until her retirement in 1948. She continued to live in Chapel Hill until the 1970s, and her letters contain news of the town and University as well as of family and friends.

During the 1920s, letters are somewhat less frequent than in the period 1917-1919. However, during the 1930s and 1940s, the number of letters increases, especially those addressed to Spencer Love. From the late 1920s, carbon copies of James Spencer Love's outgoing letters are also present. Lee Love and Cornelia Love are the most frequent correspondents. Letters between James Spencer Love and his father during the late 1930s and early 1940s discuss political and economic issues as well as family matters.

During the late 1940s, and throughout the 1950s, there are also letters and memoranda between James Spencer Love and other members of the Burlington Mills organization. Principal concerns are speeches and personal engagements of James Spencer Love, and civic and philanthropic activities of Burlington Mills/Burlington Industries and of James Spencer Love and the Love family.

After James Spencer Love's death in January 1962, correspondence diminishes.

Four letters written to James Spencer Love by noted poet, e. e. cummings, dated 17 July 1908, 23 July 1908, 14 July 1909, and 16 August 1910. All four letters were written to Love from cummings's boyhood home of Joy Farm, Silver Lake, N.H. The letter of 17 July 1908 contains several ink drawings by cummings, including a self-portrait. The letter of 23 July 1908 is addressed to several family members--James Spencer, his mother Julia Spencer Love, and his sister Cornelia. All are in verse with ink drawings of an elephant and deer. The letter of 14 July 1909 contains an acrostic on "James Spencer Love" with several drawings, including a small picture of cummings's study. The 16 August 1910 letter sends greetings and closes with a humorous self-portrait. Also included are two sketch books by Julia Spencer (Love), mother of James Spencer Love and daughter of Cornelia Phillips Spencer. The June 1872 book was created for Julia Spencer's uncle (and Cornelia Phillips Spencer's brother), Samuel Field Phillips. The second book is dated 1874.
