The law firm of Harrington & Mace was located in the Chronicle Building in Cambridge, Maryland. Emerson C. Harrington and W. Irving Mace are the original attorneys at law, however, around 1905, Calvin Harrington joined the firm making it Harrington, Mace & Harrington. Edward H. Nabb, of whom the research center is endowed, interned at this law firm and eventually married Mr. Harrington's daughter. This collection contains the law firm's incoming correspondence from 1893 through 1908. It is unsure if this collection represents all correspondence or a sampling from those years. Also in the years from 1907-1908 there is incoming correspondence from a girl, Frances Creighton, who is attending the Pierce Business School. Within her correspondence is evidence that Mr. Emerson C. Harrington was funding her education, however, it is not noted what her family relationship to him was. Included are her school grades, boarding house receipts, letters asking for funds and shorthand schoolwork. Creighton also corresponded with a woman addressed as an Aunt who acted as a connection between herself and Mr. Harrington.

This small collection of papers is composed of duplicate material in the possession of Mendel Heilig. Of primary interest is a scanned and printed photograph of a family gathering that occurred around 1911. Heilig's grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, and cousins, are each identified. In addition, his papers include two newspaper articles - one from the Baltimore Sun (Sunday, May 10, 1998, Perspectives section) and the other from The Daily Times (Saturday, April 13, 1996, Religion section) - which discuss Jewish life on the Delmarva Peninsula. One letter written by Mendel Heilig in response to the Daily Times article and two maps indicating where the Heilig family immigrated from (Shavil and Urvalis, Lithuania) are also included. Heilig's family is of particular importance to the development of the Jewish community on the Peninsula. According to Ann Miller's article, "A Jewish Way of Life on the Shore" appearing in the May 10th issue of The Baltimore Sun, at the turn of the century a number of Jewish families relocated from Baltimore and Philadelphia to the Shore, particularly Pocomoke, Salisbury and Easton. Faivel Heilig and his wife Ida Dora (Mendel's grandparents) were one such family. Faivel opened a butcher shop and served as the source for Kosher meat for Jewish families living on the Peninsula. Faivel's family, like most Jewish families in the region, struggled to maintain a religious community. Jewish life on the Peninsula was marked by a congregation rotating from house to house for worship until synagogues could be built (Faivel built the first in Pocomoke, a one-room brick building). Ardous trips from Salisbury to Philadelphia and Baltimore before the construction of the Bay Bridge for Kosher goods such as animal-product free candles was commonplace. Heilig's family, along with the Finklesteins, Klaffs and Feldmans form the foundation of the Peninsula's small, but diverse Jewish population.
