Because the filmed materials were not strictly arranged in groups or by chronology on the original microfilm that the Barker Center borrowed to copy, the inventory for these records is merely a grouping by types and dates and does not indicate the precise order by which specific materials appear on film. This is particularly true on the last half of the reel where materials could not be grouped by place of origin.
