Table of Bucks County
Sub-Series — Box: JM001 Box 5, Folder: 151
Identifier: Sub-Series I.32
Scope and Contents
"A table compiled in early 1948 as the background to a long novel I intended writing about the land I proposed buying in Bucks County. It lay at the southern edge of the terminal moraine and my story would have started with the middle ice age, the Illinoian, and would have dealt especially with the broad valley of the Delaware River.

Sub-Series — Box: JM001 Box 5, Folder: 152
Identifier: Sub-Series I.33
Scope and Contents
"The original draft of the first parts of a novel about the imaginary state of Jefferson was composed about 1950 while I was working in the old room in Bucks County. It deals with roughly the same terrain as Centennial, and many of the emotional contents are similar. The drylands murder and the effect of the drought on major characters was the same then as now. I cannot say why I dropped the idea; I have always played around with multiple ideas and gone fairly far into plots before...
