Scope and Contents

Douglass worked at the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh.

15 November 1902--"I have been inspired to rise above these little mean things like jealousy and resentment. I hope it is my privilege to live in a higher atmosphere. If I can rise above it, I can find that love my soul craves, even if Pearl marries some one else. I may never love any individual as I have her. I don't expect it. I do not think I will ever marry though of course I cannot tell."
18 November 1902--""It has been a life long struggle with poverty and poverty has so far gained the day."
