註釋

Collection consists of drafts of letters, 1876-1877, and letters received, 1876-1888. Drafts of letters are to Denham's friends Henry G. Menage, of Calumet, Michigan, some concerning the extensive collection of historical autographs collected by Mrs. Thomas A. Greene of New Bedford. Letters from Charles William Eliot, Samuel Eliot, William J. Potter, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, and others, consist of responses to Denham's Why is history read so little? (New Bedford, 1876). Denham's principal correspondents are Henry G. Menage and Joseph Henry Dubbs, professor at Franklin & Marshall College. Dubbs reports on his acquisition of Thomas Godfrey's Poems (1756), laments railroad strikes, regrets that he does not own any editions of Phillis Wheatley's poems, praises Viollet-le-Duc's Lectures on architecture and compares New Englanders' and Pennsylvanians' appetites for food and learning. Other writers, antiquarians, genealogists, publishers, historians and authors include Zachariah Allen, John Ward Dean, Samuel A. Green, Joel Munsell, Frederic B. Perkins, Henry B. Dawson, Edmund F. Slafter, Linus P. Brockett, Powhatan Bouldin, Theodore F. Dwight, John Austin Stevens, Townsend Ward, William Henry Egle, Charles Rogers, R.A. Brock, P. Hately Waddell, Charles Hawley, Frederick W. Christern, and Charles Henry Hart.
