This collection consists of a book by Doris Hartman, entitled: "My Life in Hiroshima," and a memory scrapbook created by Lila Jean Fraizer. The scrapbook documents various A-3 missionaries after their service. Other materials include: a photograph album; a manuscript; biographical notes; a music score; and printed materials.

The collection contains materials related to Warner's personal activities as a missionary. Most of the documents are personal letters. These letters are directed to family and friends and dated from 1929 to 1987. Unfortunately, the years 1968-1985 are missing. Content in these letters are usually only a few lines and discuss events, school activities, and weather conditions.The other part of this collection contains various clippings, programs, brochure, post cards, Christmas cards, play scripts, drawing, and photographs related to Warner's work and family.

There are two items in this collection. The first is a Seth Thomas Clock that was built in 1876. The clock was removed from what is known as the William Butler bungalow in Bareilly, UP, India around 1970 by Dr. Robert Petersen at the suggestion of Dr. Stanley Thoburn, deceased. Due to the patent date, it is highly probable that some other early Methodist missionary actually owned it.

The second item in this collection is a book written by William Butler entitled THE LAND OF THE VEDA. The book is autographed in the front by Clemetina Butler who was William's third wife.
