The Rufus Washington Weaver Collection contains reports, correspondence, and other university-related documents from his time at Mercer University. The folders of the Weaver Papers are not in alphabetical order throughout the collection as a whole, but rather are generally alphabetized in groups of folders. Some groups stretch over several boxes, some groups span only one box or a portion of a box. Additionally, groups of records are not necessarily in chronological order. Items in box 6 are in no order. Folders are listed by the original title. The folders include items from the title, but are not limited to the title. Unless otherwise stated, all miscellaneous files (i.e. A-miscellaneous, etc.) are interfiled by name, subject, and institution. Bracketed items are additions/corrections made by the processor. Items relating to Mercer secondary schools and junior colleges are located in these papers. Where possible, a notation is made in brackets. Items concerning Professor Henry Fox are located in several folders. Fox was asked to leave both Tattnall Square Baptist Church and Mercer University for teaching evolution as fact in Biology classes.
