Included are photographs of the Roarks and classroom or school photos; the class notes, essays and diploma of Ruric N. Roark, and a silver loving cup given to Mary Roark by the faculty of Eastern. News clippings about Mary and Ruric are also included.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Only a portion of this collection has been digitized.
