Summary
The collection includes personal and business correspondence, 1869-1910, legal papers, speeches, financial accounts, receipts, newspaper clippings, invitations and programs, and photographs. The bulk of the collection consists of Green's correspondence with Republican leaders and his activities as a speaker at political meetings. There is extensive correspondence between Green and George Myers, Marcus A. Hanna, Charles Chesnutt, Jere A. Brown, Blanche K. Bruce, T. Thomas Fortune, Ralph W. Tyler, S.T. Mitchell, Harry C. Smith, F.J. Loudin, and Theodore Bliss. Letters refer to such subjects as financial aid to Wilberforce University, travels in Europe, appointment to the position of postage stamp agent in Washington, D.C., and the conditions imposed on southern Blacks. Family correspondence and correspondence with friends in Great Britain are included. There are many speech notes which indicate great patriotism to the United States and severe condemnation of discrimination and its effect on African Americans.
