The Albert T. Spalding Collection includes a book, journals, account books, personal writings, and papers from Spalding’s time as a Baptist pastor and Mercer University trustee.

Box 1 contains correspondence, account papers, and Bursar records. Box 2 contains speeches, sermons, and other materials related to his work in the Baptist denomination. Box 3 contains copper plate lithographs used in the printing of The Story of Georgia Baptists.

The Columbus Roberts Papers include personal records (clippings/time line, correspondence, manuscript, photographs, recordings of interviews, scrapbook, and speeches) as well as materials related to the Georgia Milk Control Board, the Georgia Milk Producers Confederation, the Georgia Temperance League, and Mercer University.

The James H. Kilpatrick Collection contains a scrapbook. This was apparently given to his son, William Heard Kilpatrick, upon his death in 1908. Inside are clippings, mostly from The Christian Index, but there are also clippings from the Texas Baptist Herald. There is a barely legible index of these clippings on the inside of the front and back covers. Topics var clippings and include church government, missions, temperance, and both amusing and moralistic anecdotes.

The John Green Harrison Collection is comprised of notes from Harrison’s time as a student and faculty member. Series 1 consists of his notes from his time at the University of Berlin. Series 2 consists of boxes 3-9. Boxes 3-9 contain notebooks from while Mr. Harrison was at Mercer. Most of the notebooks are in poor condition. The covers are about to fall off, and the writing is illegible due to smudging.

With this collection comes two boxes of Pinckney Pollock’s work. In box 1, one can find correspondence, and within box 2 one can find memorial addresses, newspaper clippings, and Trustees’ Minutes excerpts.

The Shaler G. Hillyer Collection contains Baptist sermons, correspondence, and other materials. Many of the older papers are in poor condition.
