Additional Description

Arrangement

See the following listings within this finding aid for more information. The bulk of the collection is in the “Writings” series. Gane developed extensive quantities of Bible studies and radio scripts. These are in their own sub-series within the “Writings” series. In the Bible Studies sub-series and in the “Topical Files” series Gane employed some abbreviations for the topics. This is not difficult to decipher and has been left as he called it. The sermons and talks are alphabetical by title within their separate sub-series.

The Roy Gane documents are alphabetical by titles. These are likely papers Roy shared with his father.
