The Correspondence series [1.1 linear ft.; 1905-1937] contains letters and memoranda, most of which relate to Barrett's duties as director of the Psychopathic Hospital. There is extensive correspondence with national mental health organizations, staff of state and federal agencies, and other medical practitioners. Topics covered include administration and staffing of the hospital and teaching programs, as well as Barrett's own research. The latter is interspersed through the "Miscellaneous Correspondence, chronological" files in box 1.
