Collection-level Scope and Content Note

From the Collection:

The Bernard A. Maguire, S.J. Papers include correspondence (mainly letters to Father Maguire) during both of his tenures as President of Georgetown College, although not all of the content pertains to College affairs. Also present are: notes from a diary he kept between 1839 and 1870 which references events in his life and happenings on campus, including the impact of the Civil War; clippings relating to his death and funeral; and handwritten notes relating to theology lectures he attended in the late 1840s and early 1850s. Although Father Maguire was known as a gifted public speaker, unfortunately only one text of a speech he wrote survives in these papers, for an undated commencement speech he gave at his alma mater, St. John's Literary Institution in Frederick, Maryland.
