202. Murray, Myles Murray, Myles The Myles P. Murray collection consists of newspaper clippings and several pieces of correspondence mainly dealing with the political career of Myles Murray, although there are several newspaper columns which Mr. Murray wrote during World War II under the title "The Daily Doings of a Newfoundland Gunner." This material was collected by Mr. Murray's wife, Doreen. When received by the Archives, the clippings were in a three-ring binder with the clippings glued to loose-leaf exercise paper. While many of the items are not dated, the material spans the years 1941 to sometime in the 1960s. For purposes of preservation, the newspaper clippings were photocopied and the originals, which were deteriorating from age and storage in a damp place, were discarded. The items have been left in the same order as they had been in the binder, which was not chronological. The three pieces of correspondence have been placed in separate files, but photocopies have been left with the photocopies of the newspaper clippings where these items were originally located.
