Writings: Trial by Battle, 1989

John Seus was a Pacific University graduate, class of 1939, and was an attorney in the U.S. Court of Appeals. His brother, Bernie Seus, is the donor of this collection. The collection includes John Seus' letters home to his parents during World War II, manuscript drafts of legal writings, property titles and records, family photographs, and miscellaneous personal documents including academic, military, and professional records. Much of the collection consists of his notes and drafts of papers relating to legal history, most of which apparently remained unpublished. Also included is an oversized certificate from the United States Court of Appeals.
